In the health and human services field, you may interact with individuals who are experiencing symptoms related to a schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorder. You play an important role in supporting their recovery.
People with these disorders may have symptoms that impact how they think, feel, and behave. When a person with a schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorder has symptoms, it can be confusing for those around them.
It can help you to have a basic awareness of these disorders, symptoms, and possible interventions. This can help you be more effective in supporting people with schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorders in their recovery.
The goal of this course is to provide case and care management, as well as non-licensed direct care professionals working in health and human services settings with education around schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders and evidence-based strategies for intervening with this population.
