[edit] Rehabilitation is not Medical

I am confused by what is going on here. I am a certified psychiatric rehabilitation practitioner, far from being a doctor or anything medical Doctors would know nothing about PSR, the recovery model is unlike the medical model...there is an article on the "model wars" by Bill Kennard that you can refer to...but doctors do not understand the recovery concept nor do they understand psychiatric rehabilitation, and it is a valuable article. Authorities do recognize it as legitimate and important see Boston University, University of Illionois, University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (the only place where you hear medicine connected to PSR and there they call it PsyR)--Recovery Psychology (talk) 05:12, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
