Previous issue date: 2011-10-17 / The abusive use of psychoactive substances has been subject of concern and a problem faced by public policies almost worldwide. The recognition that such use develops significant economic, social, academic, family, physical and mental health consequences has led authori-ties to create programs that aim to cope with the expansion of this phenomenon. In Brazil, after a period in which the treatment offered to substance abusers was predominantly asylum, there have been changes in the model of care for this population, especially with the imple-mentation of Alcohol, Drugs and mental health services inside the Sistema Único de Saúde - SUS. This study aims to identify and analyze the perceptions of mental health professionals who work in ad-CAPS, the relevance and effectiveness of approaches and techniques they use to serve psychoactive substances users. It also wants to detect the academic and complemen-tary formation of those workers, the nature of the professional relationship established be-tween the team members, the results obtained with the work and the degree of satisfaction of those professionals with the results and identify the representation they have of those users and the degree of confidence in the ad-CAPS proposal. To collect data we used the semi-structured interview technique and the data processing was carried out based on the content analysis of Laurence Bardin technique. The research has shown that professionals do not have enough knowledge to deal with addiction, the team does not work in an interdisciplinary way and that the treatment is carried out randomly and with low efficiency. The representation they have the user is of a sick or victimized person by family and socio-economic circums-tances. It was also found that most professionals have doubts about the adequacy of the ad-CAPS as a proposal to care for alcohol and other drugs users. / O uso abusivo de substâncias psicoativas tem sido objeto de preocupação e alvo de políticas públicas de enfrentamento, praticamente no mundo todo. O reconhecimento de que tal forma de uso acarreta relevantes consequências econômicas, sociais, acadêmicas, familiares e de saúde física e mental, tem levado as autoridades competentes a criar programas que visam a fazer frente à expansão desse fenômeno. No Brasil, após um período em que o tratamento oferecido aos usuários de substâncias era predominantemente asilar, vem ocorrendo mudanças significativas no modelo de atenção a essa população, notadamente com a implantação dos Centros de Atenção Psicossocial Álcool e Drogas, dentro da estrutura do Sistema Único de Saúde SUS. O presente estudo tem por objetivo identificar e analisar a percepção dos pro-fissionais de saúde mental que atuam no CAPS-ad, sobre a pertinência e a eficácia das abor-dagens e técnicas por eles utilizadas no atendimento aos usuários de substâncias psicoativas. Visa também a conhecer a formação acadêmica e complementar desses trabalhadores; a natu-reza das relações profissionais que se estabelecem entre os membros da equipe; os resultados obtidos com o trabalho e o grau de satisfação dos profissionais com esses resultados. Objetiva ainda a identificar a representação que eles fazem desses usuários e o grau de confiança na proposta CAPS-ad. Para a coleta de dados utilizou-se a técnica de entrevistas semi-estruturadas e o tratamento dos dados foi realizado com base na técnica de Análise de Conte-údo de Laurence Bardin. A investigação revelou que os profissionais não têm formação para lidar com dependência química, que a equipe não atua de forma interdisciplinar e que o trata-mento é realizado de forma aleatória e com baixa eficácia. A representação que fazem do usu-ário é a de um indivíduo doente e ou vitimado pelas condições familiares e sócio-econômicas. Constatou-se também que a maioria dos profissionais tem dúvidas quanto à adequação do CAPS-ad como proposta para cuidar dos usuários de álcool e outras drogas.

RELIGION AND SPIRITUALITY IN CLINICAL PRACTICE: AN EXPLORATION OF RELUCTANCE AMONG PRACTITIONERS.Drew, David, Banks, Jessica 01 June 2019 (has links)
Across the United States, an overwhelming majority of the population claim that religion and spirituality beliefs shape their worldview and assist in coping with life stressors. Yet, the literature has shown that mental health practitioners reported discomfort integrating religion and spiritually in clinical practice. The purpose of this study was to explore whether license-holding mental health professionals in Southern California develop reluctance toward addressing religion/spirituality with their clients. Through snowball sampling, 52 clinicians composed of social workers, counselors, marriage and family therapists, nurses, psychologists, and psychiatrists were recruited across Southern California (N =52). The participants were measured descriptively based on (a) confidence in their ability to integrate client beliefs into treatment and (b) their comfort discussing topics related to RS with their clients. Results revealed an overall level of reluctance ranging from 15 percent (for comfortability) to 25 percent (for ability) among the study participants. Licensed clinical social workers reported slightly lower reluctance level than other licensed professionals. Implications of the findings were discussed.

Les variables associées à la collaboration interprofessionnelle dans les équipes interdisciplinaires de santé mentaleNdibu, Muntu Keba Kebe 08 1900 (has links)
Plusieurs études ont montré que la collaboration interprofessionnelle (CIP) produit des retombées positives pour les usagers, les professionnels de la santé et les organisations de soins. Cependant, les chercheurs estiment que son adoption dans les organisations et les services de santé est insuffisante. Cette situation conduit à des conflits souvent nuisibles entre les professionnels, à des erreurs médicales, à une augmentation des coûts de soins de santé et à des taux de mortalité élevés. Il existe un besoin de recherche pour identifier les variables associées à la CIP, particulièrement dans le domaine de la santé mentale (SM). La présente thèse vise à combler les lacunes susmentionnées et à permettre d’approfondir les connaissances que nous avons à l’heure actuelle sur la CIP.
Trois cent quinze (315) professionnels œuvrant dans les équipes interdisciplinaires de soins primaires (N=101) et spécialisés (N=214) de SM, localisées dans quatre réseaux locaux de services (RLS) du Québec, ont participé à l’étude. Plusieurs variables reconnues comme étant fortement associées à la CIP dans la littérature scientifique du domaine de la santé ont été prises en compte et catégorisées dans un cadre conceptuel inspiré du modèle de Bronstein (2003). Trois objectifs spécifiques ont été fixés, et chacun a fait l’objet d’un article scientifique.
Le premier article visait à identifier les variables associées à la CIP dans les équipes interdisciplinaires de SM implantées dans les RLS. Des analyses de régression linéaire ont été effectuées. Cinq variables liées aux caractéristiques interpersonnelles (l’engagement affectif envers l'équipe, le climat d'équipe, l’autonomie de l'équipe, le partage et l’intégration des connaissances), une variable liée au rôle professionnel (l’identification multifocale) et une autre liée aux caractéristiques personnelles (l’âge) étaient associées à la CIP.
Le deuxième article visait à identifier les profils de professionnels de la SM selon leurs perceptions de la CIP ainsi que les variables associées pouvant les différencier. À l'aide de l’analyse typologique, quatre profils de professionnels en SM ont été identifiés. Deux profils présentaient un niveau élevé de perception de la CIP, un profil présentait un niveau moyen et un autre présentait un niveau faible. Le support organisationnel, la participation à la prise de décisions, la confiance mutuelle, l’engagement affectif envers l’équipe, les croyances aux bénéfices de la collaboration interdisciplinaire, le partage et l’intégration des connaissances étaient associés aux profils ayant des scores élevés de la CIP.
Enfin, le troisième article a porté sur la comparaison des variables associées à la CIP selon le contexte de soins, à savoir : les soins primaires de SM (SP-SM) et les services spécialisés. Deux modèles de régression multivariée ont été réalisés, et ont permis d’identifier les variables significativement associées à chacun des contextes. Il s’agit du partage des connaissances pour les équipes de SP-SM, du soutien organisationnel et de l’âge pour les services spécialisés.
Au regard de ce qui précède, des recommandations ont été formulées à l’intention des gestionnaires des services de SM, aux CSSS et organisations de soins. / Studies have shown that interprofessional collaboration (IPC) has a positive impact on service users, health professionals and healthcare organizations. However, researchers believe that the adoption of IPC in organizations and health services is insufficient, leading to conflict among professionals, medical errors, increased costs of care and higher mortality rates. While IPC has emerged over the past several years as a best practice, research is needed to identify variables associated with IPC, particularly in mental health (MH) which has received relatively little attention. The present thesis aims to fill these gaps and to deepen the present state of knowledge about IPC, particularly in the MH field.
Three hundred and fifteen (315) MH professionals working in interdisciplinary primary care teams (N = 101) and specialized MH teams (N = 214) located in four Quebec local service networks (RLS) participated in the study. Many of the variables recognized as strongly associated with IPC in the health sciences literature, were integrated and categorized within a conceptual framework inspired by the Bronstein model (2003). Three specific study objectives were established, with each one the subject of a scientific article.
The first article aimed to identify variables associated with IPC in interdisciplinary MH teams. Linear regression analyzes were performed. Five variables related to interpersonal characteristics (emotional commitment to the team, team climate, team autonomy, knowledge sharing and integration), one variable related to professional role (identification multifocal) and another related to personal characteristics (age) were associated with IPC.
The second article aimed to identify profiles of MH professionals according to their perception of IPC as well as other distinguishing variables. Using Cluster Analysis, four profiles of MH professionals were identified. Two profiles had high levels of IPC, one profile an average level, and the other profile a low level of IPC. Organizational support, participation in decision-making, mutual trust, emotional commitment to the team, belief in the benefits of IPC, knowledge sharing, and knowledge integration were associated with the profiles that revealed high IPC scores. By contrast, team conflicts were associated with the profile of MH professionals with the lowest IPC score.
Finally, the third article focused on a comparison of IPC-related variables by care settings: primary health care (PHC) and specialized MH care. These two contexts of care differ in terms of their activities, clients served, the actors involved in care episodes of care and the roles of team members. Two multivariate regression models were performed, identifying the following variables as significantly associated with each of the care settings: knowledge sharing for PHC teams, and organizational support and age for specialized MH teams.
Considering the above, recommendations have been made to managers, health and social service centers and care organizations for promoting IPC in interdisciplinary MH teams.
