Abstract

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness. Considering the nature of illness along with routine care, different supportive psycho therapies are recommended. Psycho education is the process of imparting education and information to those seeking or receiving mental health services, such as people diagnosed with mental health conditions and their caregivers. Psycho education is an evidence-based therapeutic intervention for patients and support to better understand and cope with illness. Psycho educational approach has been developed to increase patients' as well as their caregivers' knowledge and insight into their illness. It is postulated that this increased knowledge and insight will enable people with schizophrenia and their caregivers to cope in a more effective way with the consequences of their illness, thereby improving their health.
