Paranoid schizophrenia, characterised by delusions and hallucinations and peculiar symptoms that do not resemble any other disease, is one of the many diseases diagnosed in some people. The sick person remains himself/herself, but his/her personality gradually becomes disorganised, taking him into a different , „world” of inner experiences. Most often the family and the nurse take care of the sick person. Material and methods: The study involved a person suffering from paranoid schizophrenia. A case study was used. Results: The results of the study showed that the person with the disease needs support from family, nurse and professionals. Conclusions: In order to improve his/her quality of life, an effective system of early recognition of the symptoms of the disease, its treatment, education of the family and the public must be developed and implemented. Education addressed to the patient and his/her family and to society in order to overcome the stereotypes that still exist is crucial.
