Cå for a spouse with a mental health problem is not static process since the needs of the care recipient alter as their condition changes. The role of the spouse as care giver can be more demanding and difficult if the care recipient’s mental disorder is associated with the behavioural problems. It has now been realized that developing constructive working relationships with care givers and considering their needs, is an essential part of service provision for people with mental disorders who require and receive care from their spouses.
