abstract={Schizophrenia is a common mental illness that seriously affects the health of the person. Patients with speech, behavior and personality are different from normal people. In order to improve the effectiveness of treatment for schizophrenia, the National Project for Community Mental Health Care has been implemented since 1999. People with schizophrenia who are not well-managed and well-taken care of by family members increase the risk of relapse, lengthen treatment time, and cost economically and possibly security. This study assessed the status of family management and care for Schizophrenic patients and identified some related factors. The subjects of the study were family members of schizophrenic patients. The study used a descriptive study. In Nam Dinh Province, Vietnam, situation of management and care for Schizophrenia patients outpatient treatment were medium level. The situation of management and care about periodic re-examination, labor and social reintegration had not reached a very high rate. There were periodic follow-up examination (53.7%), poor labor and community reintegration (49.7%). There was also a correlation between the age band, educational level, average income of caregivers and the quality of care for patients. Thus, similar studies should be conducted along this line to verify the findings of the study.},
