Abstract
The authors report on the usefulness of a task-oriented group in stabilizing acutely psychotic patients. The group was responsible for the task of preparing lunch for a day hospital community and was useful in helping individual patients function in a socially responsive and responsible manner. Theoretical issues raised by the success of such a group are addressed. It is postulated that activity groups may have a broader usefulness than is currently recognized in psychiatry.Entities:
