In this paper, a single case study is used to facilitate discussion of problems encountered by occupational therapists engaged in working with the long-term mentally ill. The achievement of the long-range and multi-faceted approach necessary for the management of this population is a recognized challenge. Some of the paradoxes and dilemmas involved in programming and the measurement of outcome and success are clarified. As well, sources of stress to individuals involved in working with the long-term mentally ill are considered. Issues addressed include: philosophy of approach, professional and personal conflicts patients' wishes and involvement, and the low priority given to working with this group. Two main objectives of the paper are to: bring an appreciation for the complexity of the difficulties presented and demonstrate how occupational therapists can offer valuable contributions in working with the long-term mentally ill.
