Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) for Independent Living and Community Success
Peace Health Care’s Psychiatric Rehabilitation Program (PRP) helps individuals with mental health conditions build the skills, confidence, and stability needed to live independently, maintain wellness, and participate meaningfully in their communities. Our PRP services focus on daily functioning, life skills, emotional support, and long-term recovery.
This program provides compassionate, hands-on support in a structured environment, either in the community or at our facility, depending on what works best for the individual.
What Is Psychiatric Rehabilitation (PRP)?
PRP is designed to support individuals whose mental health symptoms make daily tasks, decision-making, or community involvement challenging. It helps clients develop or regain essential life skills while improving emotional and social functioning.
Areas of support include:
- Independent living skills
- Emotional and social skills
- Managing symptoms and wellness
- Decision-making and problem-solving
- Personal hygiene and self-care routines
- Community integration
- Healthy relationships
- Stress and anger management
- Goal-setting and motivation
- Education and employment readiness
PRP is recommended when therapy and medication alone are not enough to maintain stability.
