A Problem-solving Based Bibliotherapy Program for Family Caregivers in Schizophrenia

The PSBPF will complete the bibliotherapy (self-help) and problem-solving manual developed by the research team for caregivers of people with schizophrenia spectrum disorders.

Two trained advanced practice psychiatric nurses who are experienced in psychiatric rehabilitation and group programs will lead the behavioral management and education group, which is guided by a validated treatment protocol based on the research team's (Chien and Wong, 2007) and McFarlane et al.'s (2001) family management programs for schizophrenia.
