Summary
People with disabilities including schizophrenics reported higher rates level of needs [1]. Service factors are operational forms of environmental concepts consisting of indicators of accessibility, adequacy, and nursing. While coping mechanisms are the ability of families with schizophrenia to regulate stressors consisting of coping focus problems and emotional focus coping [2]. Accessibility is an opportunity or convenience for consumers or communities to use health services that are appropriate and comparable to their needs [3]. People with disabilities in developing countries such as India or Indonesia face obstacles, ignorance about the availability of services, service and transportation costs, which is far greater for accessing health services compared to people without disabilities [4]. The service factor is a professional social support. The results of a study of 100 respondents indicate that low stress is associated with strong social support and low use of coping focus emotions [6]
