Abstract

Early psychosis is a relatively new area of practice in the field of mental health. Early intervention for people with psychosis is increasingly being recognised as a crucial component of quality care. Rehabilitation interventions in early psychosis assist in promoting recovery and involvement in community life, reduce the development of disability and facilitate the achievement of personal goals. The development of models of care and best practice in early psychosis intervention has been promoted by the Commonwealth of Australia. This paper describes a model of care and best practice in early psychosis intervention — the Early Psychosis Programme — which has been implemented in an integrated mental health service.
