Abstract

Since psycho-education itself and the details of its techniques are comparatively not well known, the prevalence of psycho-education critically depends on enlightening and motivating the staff members who try to apply its methods. Therefore, when a psycho-education program is charted, the leader of the staff members is expected to inform the staff of the methods in detail and engage them to actively exchange their opinions and ultimately build an effective plan. The aim of this report is to describe what was discussed and mutually understood by co-medical members who participated in three group sessions whose aim was to draft a psycho-education program in their psychiatric hospital. The sessions led the participants to share opinions as to what the institutional and personnel strengths and weaknesses of the hospital were, how the program should be built specifically for the hospital, and as to what an ideal psycho-education program should be. The topics raised by the participants eventually shifted to their inpatients’ individual condition and their familial circumstances, which motivated the members to reflect deeply upon what they had done to support them that far. With the required steps carefully and extensively pointed out, each of the members were more encouraged to administer a cross-medical psycho-education program, and the ways learned in which each one’s competence and the institutional characteristics of their hospital could be used to advantage.
