The definition of habilitation for disabled people is given in Federal Law No. 181 of November 24, 1995. It sets out the principles of selection individual programs social, medical, psychological adaptation, and also a distinction is made between the terms “habilitation” and “rehabilitation”.

Stage 3: Physical education and recreation activities

They are carried out on the basis of youth sports schools, physical education and sports clubs for the disabled, and include their involvement in participation in mass physical education and sports festivals, competitions, etc.

Regular sports activities have a beneficial effect on the general physical state a person, and also help to recover faster after illnesses and serious operations.

Stage 4: Social adaptation

By using social rehabilitation build relationships in family and society taking into account the needs of the disabled person himself.

Includes two components:

1. Social-environmental orientation. Helps a disabled person quickly adapt to new living conditions, taking into account his skills and abilities.

Help from psychologists and teachers is provided in the following cases:

  • in determining the opportunities available to a disabled person for self-realization;
  • assistance in enrollment in educational institutions and employment;
  • assistance in establishing contacts with relatives and others;
  • psychological assistance to the family.

2. Social and everyday habilitation. Helps the disabled person choose the most convenient pace of social and family life. To do this you need:

  • teach disabled people to care for themselves;
  • show the family the best option for living together and running a household, taking into account the skills of a disabled person;
  • prepare housing for persons with disabilities to live there.

Much attention is paid to introducing the mentee into an environment where like-minded people with similar interests are united: clubs, sections, creative groups, etc.

Comprehensive rehabilitation

It involves several specialists who help the disabled person regain the skills acquired before the injury.

Complexity is one of the principles of rehabilitation activities. It involves the use of various rehabilitation measures with the participation of both medical personnel and psychologists, teachers, exercise therapy specialists, lawyers, etc. Depending on the volume and complexity of the tasks solved by rehabilitation, on the conditions, possibilities and individual indications for its implementation, different systems rehabilitation, differing in the number of stages and duration of treatment.

The choice is made in favor of those rehabilitation measures that are most effective and ensure a speedy recovery of the victim.

Features of rehabilitation and habilitation of disabled children

For children with disabilities, there are specific features in carrying out rehabilitation activities. The sooner recovery procedures begin, the it will pass faster restoring lost skills or acquiring new ones.

For this purpose, the following types of rehabilitation and habilitation are used:

1. Medical. Includes massage, physical therapy and other types of health measures.

2. Household. Help in mastering new skills and abilities in everyday life.

3. Psychological. Various educational activities are held for children.

4. Sociocultural: excursions, theaters, concerts and other types of leisure.

The peculiarity of such events is their complexity. It is necessary to restore the child’s health and develop his physical and mental abilities to the maximum.

About financing habilitation programs

New procedure for determining disability


With the entry into force of the new law, the procedure for determining disability has changed.

Previously, mainly in the process of conducting an examination and establishing a disability group, only 2 criteria were used:

  1. What is the disorder of body functions?
  2. To what extent has the usual level of functioning been limited due to illness or injury?
  • one specific function is partially or completely lost;
  • Is it possible for a person to manage on his own or does he need regular medical and household care, etc.

Now the medical and social examination will be guided by only one criterion.

The basis for establishing a person’s disability is a health disorder with II or more severity of persistent impairment of body functions. Once a person has been identified as disabled, the criteria for establishing a disability group will be applied.

Medical and social examination also meets the principle of complexity. It is carried out on the basis of a comprehensive assessment of the body’s condition based on the following data:

  • Clinical and functional;
  • Social household;
  • Professional and labor;
  • Psychological.
If a person is officially recognized as disabled, then he will be assigned an individual rehabilitation or habilitation program, and its implementation will not only be prescribed, but also monitored.

Previously, the basis was taken as a person’s ability to communicate and learn, as well as to control his behavior. Now an objective assessment of the loss of body functionality will be given based on the results of a medical examination.

Last changes

The draft budget for 2018 allocated 29.3 billion rubles. for the purchase of rehabilitation equipment for disabled people. It is also planned to expand the provided list of TSR with a total volume of up to 900 million rubles.

Psychosocial rehabilitation: a modern approach
T.A. Solokhin

Definition of the concept of “psychosocial rehabilitation”,
its goals and objectives

The World Health Organization report on mental health (2001) states: “Psychosocial rehabilitation is a process that enables people who are frail or disabled as a result of mental disorders to achieve their optimal level of independent functioning in society.

To this definition we add that this is a constant, continuous process that includes a complex of medical, psychological, pedagogical, socio-economic and professional measures.

Psychosocial rehabilitation interventions vary depending on the needs of patients, the location where rehabilitation interventions are provided (hospital or community), and the cultural and socioeconomic conditions of the country in which mentally ill people live. But the basis of these events, as a rule, consists of:

· labor rehabilitation;
· employment;
· vocational training and retraining;
· social support;
· providing worthy living conditions;
· education;
· mental health education, including training on how to manage painful symptoms;
· acquisition and restoration of communication skills;
· acquisition of independent living skills;
· realization of hobbies and leisure, spiritual needs.

Thus, even from an incomplete list of the listed activities it is clear that psychosocial rehabilitation of mentally ill people is a comprehensive process aimed at the restoration and development of various spheres of human life.

Recently, the interest of scientists, practitioners, patients themselves and their families in psychosocial rehabilitation has increased. Currently, there are a large number of models of psychosocial rehabilitation and views on methods of its implementation. However, all scientists and practitioners agree that the result of rehabilitation measures should be reintegration(return) mentally ill people to society. At the same time, patients themselves should feel no less full citizens than other groups of the population. With that said, goal of rehabilitation can be defined this way: it is improving the quality of life and social functioning of people with mental disorders by overcoming their social alienation, as well as increasing their active life and civic position.

The Statement on Psychosocial Rehabilitation, developed by the World Health Organization jointly with the World Association for Psychosocial Rehabilitation in 1996, lists the following: rehabilitation tasks:

· reduction in severity psychopathological symptoms through the triad of medications, psychotherapeutic treatments and psychosocial interventions;
· increasing the social competence of mentally ill people by developing communication skills, the ability to overcome stress, as well as labor activity;
· reducing discrimination and stigma;
· support for families in which someone suffers from mental illness;
· creation and maintenance of long-term social support, satisfaction of at least the basic needs of mentally ill people, which include housing, employment, organization of leisure, creation of a social network (social circle);
· increasing the autonomy (independence) of mentally ill people, improving their self-sufficiency and self-defense.

B. Saraceno, head of the mental health department of the World Health Organization, commented on the importance of psychosocial rehabilitation as follows: “If we hope for the future of psychosocial rehabilitation, then it should be psychiatric care in the patients’ place of residence - accessible, complete, allowing mentally ill people to be treated and receive serious support. With this type of care, hospitals are not needed and the medical approach should be used only to a minor extent. In other words, the psychiatrist should be a valuable consultant to the service, but not necessarily its master or ruler.”

Brief historical background

In the history of rehabilitation of mentally ill patients, a number of important points who played a significant role in its development.

1. The era of moral therapy. This rehabilitative approach, which developed in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, was to provide more humane care to the mentally ill. The basic principles of this psychosocial impact remain relevant to this day.

2. Introduction of labor (professional) rehabilitation. In Russia, this approach to the treatment of mentally ill people began to be introduced in the first third of the 19th century and is associated with the activities of V.F. Sablera, S.S. Korsakov and other progressive psychiatrists. For example, as noted by Yu.V. Kannabikh, among the important transformations carried out by V.F. Sabler in 1828 at the Preobrazhenskaya Hospital in Moscow, include “... arrangement of gardening and handicraft work.”

Occupational therapy as a direction of modern domestic psychiatry began to be given Special attention, starting from the 50s of the last century. There was a network of therapeutic labor workshops and special workshops where mentally ill people undergoing inpatient and outpatient treatment could work. With the beginning of socio-economic reforms in the 90s of the last century, about 60% of institutions involved in labor rehabilitation (medical and industrial workshops, specialized workshops at industrial enterprises, etc.) were forced to cease their activities. However, even today, employment and occupational therapy are the most important components in psychosocial rehabilitation programs.

3. Development of community psychiatry. Shifting the emphasis in the provision of mental health care to out-of-hospital services and the recognition of the fact that the patient can be treated close to family and place of work has had great value to restore a sick person.

In the 30s of the last century, psychoneurological dispensaries began to open in our country and semi-stationary forms of assistance were created, which had enormous rehabilitation significance.

In the 50-60s, widespread development psychiatric rooms in clinics, central district hospitals and other institutions of the general medical network, at industrial enterprises, in educational institutions, day and night semi-hospitals, as well as other forms of assistance aimed at meeting the needs of mentally ill people.

In foreign countries (Great Britain, Japan, Canada, etc.) during this period, organizations of aid consumers and support groups began to be actively created.

The development of community psychiatry also involves the active identification of people in need of psychiatric care for early treatment and combating the consequences in the form of disability and social disadvantage.

4. The emergence of psychosocial rehabilitation centers. Their discovery began in the 80s of the twentieth century. The first centers (clubs) were created by the patients themselves (for example, Clubhouse in the USA), and their activities are aimed at helping patients cope with problems Everyday life, develop the ability to perform activities even in the presence of disability. Therefore, at first in such centers the emphasis was placed on activities that would help patients cope with life’s difficulties, not succumb to them, as well as on improving health, and not on getting rid of the symptoms of mental illness. Psychosocial rehabilitation centers have played a huge role in the development of such an area of ​​knowledge as the rehabilitation of people with disabilities due to mental illness. Currently, this form of assistance is widely used in the USA, Sweden, and Canada; the number of rehabilitation programs in them varies significantly (from 18 to 148).

In Russia, similar centers (institutions) began to be created in the mid-90s of the twentieth century, but so far there are clearly not enough of them. As a rule, these are non-governmental institutions. An example is the Club House in Moscow, which existed until 2001. Currently, rehabilitation centers operating in our country specialize in a specific area - art therapy, corrective interventions, leisure, psychotherapy, etc.

5. Developing the skills necessary to overcome life's difficulties. The emergence of this direction is due to the fact that for effective solution problems arising, people suffering from serious mental disorders require certain knowledge, skills and abilities. The development of skills and abilities is based on methods developed taking into account the principles of social learning. In this case, methods of active-directive teaching are used - behavioral exercises and role-playing games, sequential formation of elements of behavior, mentoring, prompting, and also generalization of acquired skills is carried out. It has been proven that the development of skills and abilities develops the ability for independent living in people with severe mental disorders.

Modern approaches to psychosocial rehabilitation in Russia

The accumulation of scientific data on the rehabilitation of mentally ill people and practical experience have contributed to the fact that currently in our country, along with complex treatment, including drug and occupational therapy, physiotherapy, cultural, educational and leisure activities, the following types of psychosocial interventions have been developed as part of psychosocial rehabilitation:

· educational programs in psychiatry for patients;
· educational programs in psychiatry for relatives of patients;
· trainings to develop skills for daily independent living - training in cooking, shopping, drawing up a family budget, housekeeping, using transport, etc.;
· trainings on the development of social skills - socially acceptable and confident behavior, communication, solving everyday problems, etc.;
· trainings to develop mental state management skills;
· self- and mutual-help groups of patients and their relatives, public organizations of consumers of mental health care;
· cognitive behavioral therapy aimed at improving memory, attention, speech, behavior;
· family therapy, other types of individual and group psychotherapy.

Comprehensive psychosocial rehabilitation programs are provided in many regional mental health services, both institutionally and in the community. Let's give just a few examples.

In Tver, on the basis of the regional psychoneurological dispensary, a food shop has been opened, where mentally ill people work and the products are sold through a regular retail chain. In addition, in the same dispensary there is a ceramic workshop and a fabric painting workshop, where people suffering from mental illness successfully work. All products of these enterprises are in demand among the population.

At the Tambov Regional Psychiatric Hospital, the department of psychosocial rehabilitation conducts the following programs: educational in the field of psychiatry, art therapy, leisure, therapy for holidays, including personal ones (patients’ birthdays, etc.). The hospital has opened a “Home with Support”, where patients long time Those who are hospitalized, after discharge from it, receive independent living skills and only after that return home. In the community, with the participation of professionals, the theater “We” was opened, in which patients, their relatives, and students of the theater school perform.

Important rehabilitation work is carried out in many psychiatric hospitals in Moscow. For example, in hospitals No. 1, 10 and 14, art studios are open for patients, occupational therapy is used, educational programs on psychiatry are implemented for patients and their relatives, and trainings are organized to develop social skills and independent living skills.

In the Sverdlovsk region, interdepartmental cooperation teams have been created, which include employees of medical, educational, professional institutions, employment authorities and social protection institutions, which makes it possible to comprehensively solve the problems of mentally ill people and provides a multifaceted approach to their rehabilitation.

Questions about rehabilitation,
which are most often asked by patients’ relatives

Very often relatives of mentally ill people ask us: When can rehabilitation activities begin? Rehabilitation for patients with mental disorders, as well as for somatic diseases, is recommended to begin when the condition has stabilized and the pathological manifestations have weakened. For example, rehabilitation of a patient with schizophrenia should begin when the severity of symptoms such as delusions, hallucinations, thinking disorders, etc. decreases. But even if the symptoms of the disease remain, rehabilitation can be carried out within the limits of the patient’s ability to learn and respond to psychosocial interventions. All this is necessary to increase functional potential (functional capabilities) and reduce the level of social disability.

Another question: What is meant by social impairment and decreased functional abilities of the patient? A sign of social insufficiency is, for example, lack of work. For mentally ill people, unemployment rates reach 70% or higher. It's connected with a decrease in their functionality due to the presence of psychopathological symptoms and impaired cognitive (cognitive) functions. Signs of decreased functionality include low physical endurance and work tolerance, difficulty following instructions and working with other people, difficulty concentrating, solving problems, as well as the inability to adequately respond to comments and seek help.

The social deficiency of mentally ill people also includes the phenomenon of homelessness.

Unfortunately, our society is not yet able to completely solve the problems of employment and housing for patients with severe mental disorders and thereby reduce their social insufficiency. At the same time, psychosocial rehabilitation programs improve the patient’s competence, give him the opportunity to acquire skills for overcoming stress in traumatic situations and the difficulties of everyday life, skills for solving personal problems, self-care, and professional skills, which ultimately helps to increase functional potential and reduce social disability .

Which specialists deal with psychosocial rehabilitation? Patients and their families should be aware that psychosocial rehabilitation is provided by psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, employment specialists, occupational therapists, nurses, as well as relatives and friends of mentally ill people.

Are there any special principles, methods, approaches in the work of specialists who are involved in the psychosocial rehabilitation of people with severe mental disorders?

All specialists involved in the rehabilitation of patients with mental disorders undergo training, which includes the development of special methods and techniques. The work of a rehabilitation therapist is complex, lengthy, and creative. It is based on the following principles:

· optimism about achieving results;
· confidence that even a slight improvement can lead to positive changes and improve the patient’s quality of life;
· the conviction that motivation to change one’s situation can arise not only due to special rehabilitation measures in relation to the patient, but also due to his own efforts.

What else, besides developing useful skills, can help a patient restore functionality?

At the beginning of the lecture we talked about integrated approach to rehabilitation. Let us once again list the aspects that are important for a person suffering from a severe mental illness:

· improvement of family relationships;
· labor activity, including transitional (intermediate) employment;
· expanding communication opportunities, which is achieved by participating in club activities and other special programs;
· socio-economic support;
· decent housing, including its protected forms.

What can the family do for the psychosocial rehabilitation of the patient?

The important role of the family in the psychosocial rehabilitation of a patient with severe mental illness has now been proven. This involves it performing different functions. First of all, it should be said that patients' relatives must be considered as allies in treatment. Not only do they have to learn a lot, but they themselves often have a large amount of knowledge and experience - this makes a significant contribution to the rehabilitation process. For a doctor, relatives can be a valuable source of information about the patient’s condition; sometimes they are more knowledgeable than specialists about certain aspects of his disease. Often the family acts as a link between the patient and the mental health care system. Relatives help other families whose lives have been affected by mental illness, providing advice and sharing their own experience in solving problems. All this allows us to say that relatives of patients are both teachers and educators for other families and even professionals.

The most important function of loved ones is to care for a sick person. Relatives should take into account that patients with schizophrenia feel best if there is a certain order, rules and constant responsibilities in the house for each family member. We must try to establish a regimen that suits the patient’s capabilities. Relatives can help patients instill the skills of personal hygiene, careful dressing, regular and careful eating, as well as correct intake medications, control side effects medicines. Over time, you can entrust the patient with some work around the house (washing dishes, cleaning the apartment, caring for flowers, taking care of pets, etc.) and outside the home (shopping in a store, going to the laundry, dry cleaning, etc.).

Family participation in mental health education programs is another important contribution to the psychosocial rehabilitation of a sick relative. The importance of family psychiatric education has already been discussed in previous lectures. Let us remind you once again that knowledge of the basics of psychiatry and psychopharmacology, the ability to understand the symptoms of the disease, and mastering the skills of communicating with a sick person in the family provide a real opportunity to reduce the frequency of exacerbations of the disease and repeated hospitalizations.

Protecting the rights of the patient. Family members can make a significant contribution to the fight against stigma and discrimination, as well as to improve legislation regarding people with mental illness and their families. However, for this, relatives must act together in an organized manner: create support groups and organizations of help consumers. In this case, they will not only gain the support of people facing similar problems, but will also become a force to be reckoned with by both professionals and government agencies responsible for providing quality mental health and social care.

In addition, working in a team, relatives of patients can themselves conduct psychosocial rehabilitation programs - leisure, holiday therapy, educational programs for the population in order to reduce stigmatization and discrimination of patients, and by teaming up with professionals - implement educational programs in the field of psychiatry, vocational training, development of social skills and many others.

In almost half of the regions of Russia, patients, relatives of patients and professionals have created support groups, public organizations that carry out active work on psychosocial rehabilitation directly in the community, relying on its resources, outside the walls of hospitals or dispensaries. The next section of the lecture is devoted to the contribution of public forms of assistance to the psychosocial rehabilitation of patients and their families.

Public forms of assistance

Goals and objectives of public organizations

Consumers of mental health care - patients and members of their families - have long been perceived as passive participants in the process of providing care. What types of help the patient needs were determined by professionals, without recognizing treatment needs and own desires the patients themselves and their relatives. In recent decades, the situation has changed, which is associated with the development of the movement of consumers of medical and psychiatric care, and the creation of public organizations by them.

For a long time now, in many countries, the significance of the contribution of the social movement to the development of psychiatric services and the implementation of psychosocial rehabilitation programs is beyond doubt.

It is noteworthy that the social movement in psychiatry abroad was initiated by one of its consumers - Clifford Byrnes (USA), who himself for a long time was a patient in a psychiatric hospital. Around this man, at the beginning of the last century, famous American doctors and representatives of the public united to achieve for the mentally ill better conditions treatment and care. As a result of such joint activities, the National Committee for Mental Hygiene was formed in 1909.

In Canada, the USA, England, Japan, Australia, India and many other countries, patients and their relatives satisfy part of their needs through numerous non-governmental - public organizations of care consumers, including national ones. For example, the World Fellowship for Schizophrenia and Allied Disorders has made significant progress in bringing patients and their families together.

In Russia, until 1917, there were public forms of care for the mentally ill, the main tasks of which included attracting the population to provide charitable assistance, providing psychiatric institutions with funds from donations, etc. The greatest activity in the development of such forms of assistance occurred during the period of zemstvo medicine, when night and day care centers were created shelters, shelters, free canteens were opened for the disadvantaged, and patronage forms of serving the mentally ill were organized.

In modern Russia, the activities of public organizations of mental health consumers have intensified only in the last 10-15 years, but by the end of the 90s of the last century there were several dozen organizations working in the field of mental health. In 2001, an all-Russian public organization of people with disabilities due to mental disorders and their relatives “New Opportunities” was created, the main goal of which is to provide practical assistance to such people with disabilities and improve their position in society. Today, within the framework of this organization there are more than 50 regional branches, the members of which are mainly patients and their relatives.

An analysis of the activities of various regional public organizations working in the field of mental health showed that the goals of many of them are similar - this is the integration into society of persons with mental health problems through their socio-psychological and labor rehabilitation, protection of their rights and interests, changing the image of a mentally ill person in society, mutual support for mentally ill people and their families, assistance in crisis situations, prevention of disability due to mental illness. In other words, the activities of public organizations are aimed at improving the quality of life of mentally ill people and their relatives.

Public organizations also provide the opportunity to communicate, exchange experiences, and develop a sense of belonging: relatives of patients see that they are not alone, that there are a lot of such families.

The functions of public associations are:

· creation of self- and mutual support groups;
Conducting group developmental work with patients of different ages, leisure programs;
· organization of painting workshops, decorative and applied arts, theater studios, summer recreation camps;
· Conducting training seminars for relatives, as well as for specialists working with mentally ill people.

Many organizations have developed interesting methods and accumulated a wealth of work experience.

International experience shows that in a number of countries the consumer movement has significantly influenced mental health policies. In particular, the employment of people with mental health disorders in the traditional mental health system, as well as in other social services, has increased. For example, in the Ministry of Health of the Province of British Columbia (Canada), for the position of director of alternative treatment a person with a mental disorder has been appointed and can now have a significant impact on mental health policy and services.

Protecting the rights of the mentally ill is important task many public organizations in our country. It is known that the Law of the Russian Federation “On psychiatric care and guarantees of the rights of citizens during its provision” provides for a special article - No. 46 “Control of public associations over the observance of the rights and legitimate interests of citizens in the provision of psychiatric care.” This article of the law itself and the commentary to it note the importance of the activities of public associations for both patients and psychiatric institutions, define the obligation of the administration of these institutions to assist representatives of public organizations, provide them with the necessary information, and note the right of public organizations to appeal in court the actions of individuals who violated the rights and legitimate interests of citizens when providing them with psychiatric care. The right of representatives of public associations to be included in various councils, commissions of psychiatric institutions, health authorities created to monitor the quality of care for the mentally ill, the conditions of their detention, and improve the forms of work of psychiatric services has been introduced. The importance of joint activities of public organizations and state psychiatric institutions is noted to attract the attention of the media, health authorities, government circles and society as a whole to modern problems of psychiatry, changing the negative image of the mentally ill and psychiatric institutions.

As the movement of help consumers intensifies, the human rights function should be developed in terms of lobbying the interests of mentally ill people and members of their families among legislators, politicians, and public figures, and work with them should be constant.

Another aspect of the advocacy work of public consumer organizations may be related to the protection of psychiatric institutions themselves when, for example, they are threatened with funding cuts.

The role of professionals

We see it in the initiation of relatives and patients themselves to create public organizations or support groups. It is professionals who can play a vital role in the formation of such organizations.

Subsequently, professionals should assist the organization in developing its activities - constantly advising its leaders or support groups on issues of education in the field of psychiatry, including legal aspects.

Professionals can also help create strategic plans for an organization. Extremely useful assistance from professionals to public consumer organizations can be the publication of newspapers, booklets, and manuals for families of mentally ill people.

Thus, the development of a social movement of consumers of mental health care is becoming an important link in the modern system of mental health care, capable of meeting many of the needs of mentally ill people, their position in society, reducing the burden of the disease, and improving the quality of life of patients and their family members.

Activities of a public organization
"Family and Mental Health"

All authors of this manual are members of the public organization Center for Socio-Psychological and Information Support “Family and Mental Health”, which received legal status on June 6, 2002. The initiators of its creation are employees of the department of organization of psychiatric services Science Center mental health of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences and parents of patients suffering from mental disorders.

In 1996, the first socio-psychological school in Moscow was opened to support families of mentally ill people, which formed the basis of our future organization. Thus, official registration was preceded by a six-year period of activity, during which extensive experience in the field of psychosocial rehabilitation of people with mental disorders and their relatives was accumulated.

Our members now include not only mental health professionals, but also people with mental health problems, their families and friends.

The social movement draws the attention of the authorities to the most actual problems, forces us to look for ways to solve them. Participation in the work of a public organization contributes to the formation of an active citizenship among patients with mental illness and members of their families, and stimulates them to search for ways to improve their position in society.

Why did we name our organization “Family and Mental Health”?
This name reflects two fundamental values ​​of our lives - family and mental health.

Mental health is essential to the well-being of individuals, societies and countries. It is inseparable from physical health and has a huge impact on the cultural, intellectual, creative, productive and defense potential of any nation. The role of family in the life of a person suffering from a mental disorder is enormous. The family faces problems before the doctor mental illness- at a very early stage, and can promote or counteract its early recognition and effective treatment.

The family provides the sick person with care and emotional support that professionals often cannot provide.

Good relationships between family members are the key to favorable conditions for recovery, rehabilitation and compliance with medical recommendations.

In a family, each member is influenced by others and, in turn, influences them. If something is not going well in the family, it can interfere with its normal functioning. Therefore, one of the main tasks that we set for ourselves is socio-psychological and informational support for the family, as well as the harmonization of family relationships.

We perceive our organization as a large and friendly family, each member of which is ready to take care of others and come to the aid of those who need it. Therefore, not only people who have mental health problems, but also their families, friends, as well as doctors, teachers and psychologists, musicians and artists can become members of our organization. Our understanding of the family is not limited to the immediate environment of the patient - it also includes those who care about the fate of people with mental health problems.

Introduction.

According to the UN, there are approximately 450 million people worldwide with mental and mental disorders. physical development. This represents 1/10 of the inhabitants of our planet (of which about 200 million are children with disabilities).

Moreover, in our country, as well as throughout the world, there is a growing trend in the number of disabled children. In Russia, the incidence of childhood disability has doubled over the past decade.

In 1995, more than 453 thousand disabled children receiving a social pension were registered with the social protection authorities. But in fact there are twice as many such children: according to WHO estimates, there should be about 900 thousand of them - 2-3% of the child population

Every year about 30 thousand children are born in the country with congenital hereditary diseases, of which 70-75% are disabled.

Disability in children means a significant limitation in life activity; it contributes to social maladaptation, which is caused by developmental disorders, difficulties in self-care, communication, learning, and mastering professional skills in the future. The acquisition of social experience by disabled children and their inclusion in the existing system of social relations requires certain additional measures, means and efforts from society (these may be special programs, special rehabilitation centers, special educational institutions, etc.). But the development of these measures should be based on knowledge of the patterns, tasks, and essence of the process of social rehabilitation.

Currently, the process of social rehabilitation is the subject of research by specialists in many branches of scientific knowledge. Psychologists, philosophers, sociologists, teachers, social psychologists and other specialists reveal various aspects of this process, explore the mechanisms, stages and stages, factors of social rehabilitation.

Social policy in Russia, aimed at disabled people, adults and children, is built today on the basis of the medical model of disability. Based on this model, disability is considered as an illness, disease, pathology. Such a model, wittingly or unwittingly, weakens the social position of a child with a disability, reduces his social significance, isolates him from the “normal” children’s community, aggravates his unequal social status, and condemns him to the recognition of his inequality and lack of competitiveness in comparison with other children. The medical model also determines the methodology of working with a disabled person, which is paternalistic in nature and involves treatment, occupational therapy, and the creation of services that help a person survive, let us note - not live, but survive.

The consequence of the orientation of society and the state towards this model is the isolation of a child with disabilities from society in a specialized educational institution, and the development of passive - dependent life orientations in him.

In an effort to change this negative tradition, we use the concept "person with disabilities" which has become increasingly used in Russian society.

The traditional approach does not exhaust the full scope of the problems of the category of adults and children in question. It clearly reflects the lack of vision social essence child. The problem of disability is not limited to medical aspect, it is much more a social problem of unequal opportunities.

This idea radically changes the approach to the triad “child - society - state”. The essence of this change is as follows:

The main problem of a child with disabilities is the disruption of his connection with the world, limited mobility, poor contacts with peers and adults, limited communication with nature, inaccessibility of a number of cultural values, and sometimes even basic education. This problem is a consequence not only of a subjective factor, such as the state of the child’s physical and mental health, but also a result social policy and the established public consciousness, which sanction the existence of an architectural environment, public transport, and social services inaccessible to disabled people.

A child with a disability may be just as capable and talented as his peer who does not have health problems, but inequality of opportunities prevents him from discovering his talents, developing them, and using them to benefit society;

A child is not a passive object of social assistance, but a developing person who has the right to satisfy diverse social needs in cognition, communication, and creativity;

The state is called upon not only to provide a child with a disability with certain benefits and privileges, it must meet his social needs and create a system of social services that will help mitigate the restrictions that impede the processes of his social rehabilitation and individual development.

The purpose of this work is to characterize the social rehabilitation of disabled children, its significance and modern directions. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to solve the following tasks:

Describe the essence of the concepts of disability and rehabilitation, types of rehabilitation;

Consider modern trends and basic methods of social rehabilitation of disabled children


A child with disabilities in modern conditions

Social rehabilitation of persons with disabilities is one of the most important and difficult tasks of modern systems of social assistance and social services. The steady increase in the number of disabled people, on the one hand, increasing attention to each of them - regardless of his physical, mental and intellectual abilities, on the other hand, the idea of ​​​​increasing the value of the individual and the need to protect his rights, characteristic of a democratic, civil society, on the third hand - all this predetermines the importance of social rehabilitation activities.

According to the Declaration of the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (UN, 1975) disabled person is any person who cannot independently provide fully or partially the needs of normal personal and (or) social life due to a deficiency, whether congenital or not, in his (or her) physical or mental capabilities.

In Recommendation 1185 to rehabilitation programs of the 44th session of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe of May 5, 1992. disability determined as limitations in capabilities caused by physical, psychological, sensory, social, cultural, legislative and other barriers that do not allow a person with a disability to be integrated into society and take part in the life of the family or society on the same basis as other members society. Society has a responsibility to adapt its standards to the special needs of people with disabilities so that they can live independent lives.

In 1989, the UN adopted the text of the Convention on the Rights of the Child, which has the force of law. It enshrines the right of children with developmental disabilities to lead a full and dignified life in conditions that allow them to maintain dignity, a sense of self-confidence and facilitate their active participation in the life of society (Article 23); the right of a disabled child to special care and assistance, which should be provided whenever possible free of charge, taking into account the financial resources of the parents or other persons caring for the child, in order to ensure that the disabled child has effective access to educational, vocational training, medical care, and rehabilitation services , preparation for work and access to recreational facilities, which should contribute to

opportunities for the most complete involvement of the child in social life and the development of his personality, including cultural and spiritual development.

In 1971, the UN General Assembly adopted the Declaration of the Rights of Mentally Retarded Persons, which affirmed the need to maximize the rights of such persons with disabilities, their rights to adequate health care and treatment, as well as the right to education, training, rehabilitation and protection that allows them to develop their abilities and capabilities. The right to work productively or engage in any other useful activity to the fullest extent of one’s abilities is specifically stipulated, which is associated with the right to material security and a satisfactory standard of living.

Of particular importance for children with disabilities is the norm stating that, if possible, a mentally retarded person should live in his own family or with foster parents and participate in the life of society. The families of such persons should receive assistance. If it is necessary to place such a person in a special institution, it is necessary to ensure that new environment and living conditions differed as little as possible from the conditions of ordinary life.

In the International Pact about UN economic, social and cultural rights (Article 12) establish the right of every disabled person (both adults and minors) to the highest attainable level of physical and mental health. An integrative document covering all aspects of the life of persons with disabilities is the UN Standard Rules for the Equalization of Opportunities for Persons with Disabilities.

Rehabilitation of children with disabilities in the Rehabilitation Center

The main problem of a child with disabilities lies in its connection with the world, in mobility restrictions, poor contacts with peers and adults, and access to cultural values. This problem is an expression not only of a subjective factor, such as social, physical and mental health, but also the result of social policy and the prevailing public consciousness.

A child, brought face to face with his parents, who have one dominant thing - his illness, is gradually isolated from society, and there is nothing about his upbringing, much less development mental processes there is no question. Child socialization occurs in microsociety (family) and in macrosociety (society).

As a result of exposure to objective adverse factors, more than 85% children in Russia(and according to some estimates, up to 93%) already at the moment of birth they fall into "risk zone", that is, they have a predisposition to the occurrence various kinds disturbances in the process of further mental development. Therefore, the growth in numbers should be considered as a constantly operating factor, requiring not individual, private, but systematic social decisions.

As is known, under rehabilitation in the broadest sense of the word understand the total of all costs and actions that contribute to the provision of people handicapped due to birth defects, diseases, or accidents, possibilities lead a normal life, find one’s place in society, and fully demonstrate one’s abilities.

A child with a disability is a part and member of society; he wants, should and can participate in all multifaceted life.

A child with a disability may be as capable and talented as his peers who do not have health problems.

A child is not a passive object of social assistance, but a developing person who has the right to satisfy diverse social needs in cognition, communication, and creativity.

An institution that was created to provide children and adolescents with disabilities, medical, social and pedagogical assistance, ensuring their fullest possible social life in society, in the family is the State Budgetary Institution of the Russian Federation (I) "RRC Neryungri""Republican rehabilitation center for children and adolescents with disabilities, Neryungri."

Introduction to Human Community children with disabilities is the main task of the entire system of activities Center. The main direction of psychological and pedagogical activity is an appeal to the individual disabled children, built on partnership techniques, active participation of such children in their own rehabilitation, versatility of efforts, unity and phasing of psychosocial and pedagogical influence.

A special role in the psychological and pedagogical process of our institution is given to socio-cultural.
