[Complex after-care--an important contribution to the rehabilitation of endogenous psychoses].

Treatment of patients suffering from endogenous psychosis should not be broken off after the stationary discharge. It needs a gliding system in steps for therapy and after-care. Close to the medicamentous long-term treatment the occupational rehabilitation is, above of greatest importance. A close co-operation with the work group "Occupational Rehabilitation" may facilitate the patient's occupational use substantially. However, a great engagement is often necessary too, especially for the unattached patients' reenrolment in the dwelling sphere. The rehabilitation in the poststationary phase should already be prepared during the stationary care and can only be carried out effectively in close co-operation with the psychiatric care, the District Commission for Rehabilitation, The Rehabilitation Center, the office for employment, and the Department for Dwelling policy.
