RESUMO
This paper examines the need for and role of occupational therapy in the organization and functioning of a community day care centre for psychiatric patients in a developing country. It highlights the debilitating effects of institutionalization associated with a previously established system of institutional care and explores the role of occupational therapy in facilitating the move away from that approach towards community-based day care centres for such patients. The paper describes the community care programme; the patients attending the programme; the methods used by occupational therapists to evaluate patients; and the effectiveness of the various individual, group and family focused methods of treatment deployed.
