<p>Aim To evaluate the use of a computer-delivered psycho-education programme which tries to improve patients’ knowledge and understanding of psychosis.</p> <p>Method The study used a qualitative approach to gather opinions from participants (n=10) using semi-structured interviews.</p> <p>Findings The results indicated that patients in forensic psychiatry were able to use the CD-ROM with relative ease. They found it acceptable and enjoyable to use and had little difficulty working through the programme and developing their own relapse prevention plan.</p> <p>Conclusion The study suggests that patients with psychosis are willing to try new ways to learn about their illness and enjoy learning about a complex and sensitive subject. CD-ROM is a useful way to deliver information on psychosis, which may appeal to the younger patient population, who are more familiar with computer technology.</p>
