Sažetak

Healthcare decisions may have life-changing consequences which are even more important in schizophrenia treatment programs. In this study, we hypothesized that there is a significant difference in treatment satisfaction among patients after completing the one-year psychoeducation program. We expected a higher overall treatment satisfaction among 19 schizophrenic patients on olanzapine long acting injection after completing the one-year psychoeducation program. Results showed that there is no difference in treatment satisfaction among patients after completing the psychoeducational program. However, the additional analysis did elicit a statistically significant change in treatment satisfaction before and after enrolling in the olanzapine long acting program. Patients reported a significantly higher treatment satisfaction after enrolling in the olanzapine long acting injection program than before, previous to completing the psychoeducational program, as well as after the program completion. We concluded that the patient’s treatment satisfaction with the psychoeducative program achieved a constant high value even after a year of enrolling. A high treatment satisfaction shows that this type of therapy has a great potential in providing a more successful positive outcome in the treatment of schizophrenic patients, and it should be considered as a crucial part of patient care and treatment.
