Abstract
The efficacy of psychoeducational family interventions in schizophrenia is well established with clear evidence that they result in reduced relapse rates and costs of care. Gaps remain in our knowledge with regard to their applicability to early psychosis or psychoses other than schizophrenia. Questions as to how they can be implemented in routine clinical settings remain unanswered. development of these interventions has been a decline in research on family burden or caregiving. The needs of family caregivers is their own right rather than as agents of rehabilitation received little attention in the 1970s and 1980s, although there has been a welcome revival of interest in the present decade. The challenge of the next century is to look at how the different 'camps' can be integrated to produce better services for those with psychosis and their families, as comprehensive services which meet the needs of all of those involved are rare worldwide.
