Encephale. 2024 Feb 28:S0013-7006(23)00200-2. doi: 10.1016/j.encep.2023.09.003. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPsychosocial rehabilitation (PSR) is a therapeutic approach which aims to improve the overall functioning of people with severe mental disorders. We detail the principles of bioethics applied to care and seek to demonstrate how PSR meets the requirements of a humanistic psychiatry. The four fundamental principles of the ethics of care - autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence and justice - are found in the practice of PSR. The practice and implementation of PSR is strongly encouraged in universal codes of ethics.PMID:38423859 | DOI:10.1016/j.encep.2023.09.003
