Its core principle is that treatment should be organised around patients' specific problems. This approach gained widespread adoption in the United States during the 1970s.

Diagnoses rely on the assessment of psychopathological symptoms, which are grouped into syndromes. These symptoms and syndromes can be effectively categorized as \"problems\". Given that psychiatric treatment is often symptomatic in that it focuses on symptoms rather than diagnoses, POMR provides an ideal framework for organizing care. Furthermore, mental health is inherently multidimensional, encompassing biological, psychological, social, and existential domains. This complexity necessitates interdisciplinary collaboration. However, under the conventional source-based approach, professional groups often operate in parallel rather than jointly together. POMR, by contrast, facilitates seamless collaboration by aligning teams around patient-centred problems. A special aspect of mental health care is the emphasis on considering patients' individual goals and resources, rather than focusing only on their deficits.</p><p><strong>Interpretation: </strong>By systematically applying POMR to psychiatric care-particularly through tightly coordinated interdisciplinary treatment-clinicians could enhance both clinical and functional outcomes, improve both patient and team satisfaction, and better align treatment with patients' unique needs.
