Abstract | ||||
Background: Social support is an important element in the recovery of clients with psychiatric disorders. There is a lack of studies investigating the relative impact of factors related to social support. Disentangling these could enhance recovery for psychiatric patients. Aim: This study aimed to explore the relation between social support and recovery among patients with psychiatric disorders. Subjects and Method: A descriptive correlational research design utilized in this study. The study subjects comprised sample of 162 psychiatric patients from outpatient clinic of Port Said Psychiatric Health and Addiction Treatment, Egypt. Two tools were utilized to collect the necessary data, Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support and Recovery Assessment Scale, in addition to a personal and clinical data sheet. Results: nearly two thirds of the studied psychiatric patients got low perceived total social support. Also nearly three quadrants of the studied psychiatric patients had low level of psychological recovery. Conclusion and Recommendations: It can be concluded from the present study that there was a positive statistically significant correlation between perceived social support and recovery for psychiatric patients. Therefore, enhancing social support while caring for psychiatric patients is recommended to regain recovery. Further studies are needed to improve recovery for psychiatric patients. | ||||
