Abstract
This article reports a nursing care experience with a schizophrenic patient who has long-term auditory hallucination, delusion and occasional self-multilating behaviors. The Neuman system model was applied to make a holistic evaluation during patient care. It was found that abnormal thinking process, abnormal perception, high suicidal impuiseness and interpersonal handicap markedly affected this patient. Through the intervention of self-surviving techniques based on therapeutic relationships, his anxiety, depressive mood, maladjustment and self-harm behaviors resulting from psychosis were improved gradually.
This article validated the importance of the nursing staff who provide nursing strategies to help chronic schizophrenic patients to get self -surviving techniques. The result also indicated that the discomfort due to residual psychosis and their coping ability could be improved effectively through the usage of these techniques.
