Without community-based rehabilitation MHCUs experience difficulties with re-integration into communities, resulting in high readmission risks and defaulting on clinic visits and medication. The study aimed to explore and describe the experiences and perceptions of MHCUs community re-integration in the Dikgatlong sub-district. A key objective of the study was to report on the facilitating factors and support needs of MHCUs after their discharge from hospital.enOccupational TherapyMental health careDikgatlong sub-districtMental illnessUniversity of the Western Cape
