Adolescents diagnosed with schizophrenia, typically between the ages of 12 and 17, often exhibit impaired social functioning, which manifests as reduced self-care abilities, diminished interpersonal communication skills, and decreased engagement in academic pursuits. Current research, however, predominantly concentrates on adult populations, leaving a significant gap in rehabilitation strategies tailored for adolescents. The adaptation of adultcentered models is often unsuitable for the unique demands of juvenile home and school settings. In this study, we implemented a multifaceted approach, incorporating home-based, school-based, and medical rehabilitation interventions. Our findings indicate that family-centered routines led to a 40% improvement in self-care capabilities among the participants. Furthermore, modifications to school responsibilities resulted in a 30% increase in academic participation. Medical-emotional conversational therapy was effective in reducing the frequency of seizures by 25%. This study offers valuable insights for nursing professionals and contributes to the advancement of rehabilitation practices specifically designed for adolescents.
