Abstract

Social rehabilitation in addiction is an essential part of mental health services provided to individuals with substance use disorders. This concept refers to combining various activities to increase individuals' ability to reintegrate into society. The rehabilitation process is aimed at supporting individuals with substance use disorders, improving their problem-solving skills, and increasing their social adaptation. These services are often provided by organizations that offer addiction treatment and rehabilitation. These institutions operate in hospital environments, and a multidisciplinary team provides treatment services. Psychiatric nurses are part of the treatment team, play an active role in observation and communication, and spend the most time with the individuals. Examining the roles of psychiatric nurses in this field is critical in terms of the treatment and systemic organization of individuals with substance use disorders. Therefore, in this article, the responsibilities of psychiatric nurses who play an active role in the social rehabilitation of individuals with substance use disorders will be reviewed.
