"A reforma psiquiátrica em Cuiabá/MT: análise do processo de trabalho das equipes de saúde mental" / "The Psychiatric Reform in Cuiabá/MT: an analysis of the work process of the mental health teams"

Oliveira, Alice Guimarães Bottaro de 17 December 2003 (has links)
O objeto desta tese é o movimento da Reforma Psiquiátrica no Município de Cuiabá/MT, analisado por meio dos processos de trabalho das equipes de saúde mental nos serviços extra-hospitalares de atenção à saúde mental, numa abordagem dialética-marxista. Compreende-se que o processo de trabalho, sendo o fundamento do modo de produção e, portanto, da sociabilidade humana, permite analisar toda a problemática envolvida nas práticas de saúde, que se efetivam em uma determinada realidade concreta, complexa e representam a síntese de múltiplas determinações histórico-sociais. O movimento de Reforma Psiquiátrica nos anos 1970/1980 teve, em Cuiabá/MT, uma correspondência com a expansão da rede hospitalar psiquiátrica privada, determinada pelo peculiar processo de desenvolvimento econômico-social local. Atualmente, constata-se uma hegemonia do setor hospitalar privado no contexto de assistência à saúde mental em Cuiabá e, simultaneamente, uma discreta reorganização administrativa da assistência orientada para práticas extra-hospitalares que, entretanto, não confronta, quantitativa e qualitativamente, com o modelo de atenção médico-psiquiátrico que embasa as práticas da psiquiatria hospitalar. Tal reorganização visa atender, prioritariamente, às regras atuais de financiamento do setor. Observou-se uma centralização do poder administrativo e vínculos, muitas vezes, precários de trabalho dos profissionais, além da ausência ou restrição de número e de categorias de profissionais que seriam necessários para imprimir uma modificação no modelo de atenção ao trabalho das equipes. A cidadania – instrumento e finalidade do processo terapêutico na Reforma Psiquiátrica - é dissociada da vivência e organização do trabalho de profissionais e usuários. A referência de cidadania predominante nos processos de trabalho foi a cidadania tutelada. Não se observou uma problematização da condição de cidadania de doentes mentais e, não sendo exploradas as contradições das práticas que os profissionais operam - simultaneamente restrição de liberdade e atenção psicossocial - observou-se uma alienação dos mesmos em relação ao seu trabalho, que ficou então reduzido à realização de atividades. A medicalização é o mecanismo estruturante de todas as práticas analisadas e os instrumentos mais evidentes na abordagem terapêutica são os medicamentos psicotrópicos. A conformação de um novo paradigma de assistência – Reforma Psiquiátrica – requer a confrontação com o antigo modelo médico psiquiátrico, o que não se observou na realidade estudada. / The study object of this thesis is the movement for a Psychiatric Reform carried out in the district of Cuiabá (MT), analyzed through the work processes of the teams in charge of mental health outpatient attention and based on a dialectic-Marxist approach. It is understood that the working process, being the foundation of the production manner and human interaction, allows us to analyze all the problems involved in health practices which become effective in a certain concrete and complex reality. These practices represent a synthesis of the multiple socio-historical orders. The movement of Psychiatric Reform in the 70’s and 80’s in Cuiabá coincided with the growth of the number of hospitals in the private area, determined by the peculiar local socio-economic development process. We can, nowadays, notice the preeminence of private hospitals in the context of mental health assistance in Cuiabá and, at the same time, observe a slight administrative re-organization of the assistance to outpatients although it cannot be compared, in quantity nor quality, to the medical-psychiatric attention model provided by hospital psychiatry. This re-organization seeks to attend to, on a first instance, the present financing rules of the sector. A centralization of the administrative power has been observed together with somehow failing work-bonds for professionals and the absence or restriction of number and professional categories that should be considered essential to achieve a modified pattern of attention to the teams’ work. Citizenship – instrument and purpose of the therapeutic process within the Psychiatric Reform – is disassociated from the experience and working organization of professionals and users. The predominant reference to citizenship in the working processes is that of a tutored citizenship. We were not able to observe the problematics of the citizenship condition of the mentally disabled and as the contradictions in the professionals’ practice – simultaneous occurrence of independence restrictions and psycho-social attention – were not explored, a certain alienation was detected as far as their work was concerned, which was reduced to task compliance. Medication is the structuring mechanism of all the analyzed practices and the most apparent instruments for the therapeutic approach are psychotropic drugs. The conformation of a new assistance paradigm – Psychiatric Reform – requires the confrontation with the old psychiatric medicine model, which was not observed in the reality context we studied.

Reabilitação psicossocial em hospital psiquiátrico: as representações e práticas dos trabalhadores / Psychosocial rehabilitation in psychiatric hospital : the representations and practice of workers

Andrade, Talita Moreira 27 November 2012 (has links)
Diante do expressivo número de Hospitais Psiquiátricos no Estado de São Paulo, que continuam presentes no atendimento das pessoas com transtornos mentais mesmo frente à política de desinstitucionalização e a priorização do atendimento nos serviços substitutivos, surge a questão se os profissionais que trabalham neles conhecem e discutem o conceito de reabilitação psicossocial e como trabalham no contexto da Reforma Psiquiátrica. Este estudo objetivou analisar as possibilidades e impossibilidades de se implantar estratégias de reabilitação psicossocial em hospitais psiquiátricos, foi escolhido como objeto as representações que os trabalhadores têm sobre a reabilitação psicossocial e como categorias analíticas, as representações sociais e o processo de trabalho em saúde. Os dados foram coletados no período entre novembro e dezembro de 2011, por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com questões norteadoras, junto a dezoito trabalhadores dos lares abrigados em um hospital psiquiátrico no Município de São Paulo. Após a transcrição das falas, os dados foram analisados conforme a metodologia de análise temática. A análise dos discursos dos entrevistados revelou temas que por aproximação configuraram a categoria Processo de Trabalho: Os temas que formaram esta categoria foram: o agente, instrumentos, objeto, finalidade e as dificuldades e facilidades do processo de trabalho. Também foram encontrados temas que por aproximação configuraram a categoria Processo de Reabilitação Psicossocial: objeto, instrumentos e finalidade do processo de reabilitação psicossocial. A categoria representações sociais possibilitou compreender a concepção dos trabalhadores sobre a reabilitação psicossocial; sendo sua finalidade independência, aumento do poder contratual, resgate da cidadania e dos direitos: de morar, trabalhar e reestabelecer laços sociais. A categoria analítica processo de trabalho desvelou o próprio processo de trabalho da equipe e o processo de reabilitar; os discursos apresentaram contradições em que coexistem as concepções embasadas no modelo da psiquiatria tradicional e concepções coerentes com as da reabilitação psicossocial. O que limita as possibilidades de reabilitação é: a precariedade da rede de saúde mental em São Paulo, escassez de recursos humanos e materiais, resistência por parte das famílias. As possibilidades ocorrem pela superação das práticas centradas na doença para práticas centradas nas necessidades materiais e psicossociais da pessoa. Os trabalhadores compreendem o hospital psiquiátrico como local de zero troca, reiterando vasta literatura sobre o tema, por isso, a finalidade do processo de trabalho é a alta do morador. Pode-se dizer que o trabalho nos lares abrigados proporciona a desospitalização do paciente e uma permanência com possibilidade de vida mais digna do que em enfermarias, pois tem a possibilidade de habitar e não simplesmente estar. Entretanto, é importante salientar que os moradores continuam sob o poder do hospital psiquiátrico e da equipe, limitados às normas institucionais, menos rígidas em relação às das enfermarias, mas ainda presentes, o que a análise revelou ser entendido pelos trabalhadores, evidenciando uma superação em relação à concepção do hospital como protetor ou local para tratar a crise. / Facing the expressive number of psychiatric hospitals in the state of São Paulo, which are still present in the assistance of people with mental disorders even facing the politics of desinstitutionalization and the prioritization in the assistance of substitutive services, arises the question whether the professional who works in them know and discuss the concept of psychosocial rehabilitation and how they work in the context of Psychiatric Reform. This study aimed in analyzing the impossibilities of implanting strategies of psychosocial rehabilitation in psychiatric hospitals, it was chosen as object the social representations in which workers have about the psychosocial rehabilitation and as analytical categories the social representations and in health work process. The data were collected between the periods from November to December of 2011, by means of semi-structured interviews with leading questions, with eighteen workers from shelters in a psychiatric hospital in the city of São Paulo. After the voices transcriptions, the data were analyzed following the methodology of thematics analysis. The analysis of the interviewed people have revealed themes that per approaching set the category Process of Work: the themes which have formed this category were : the agent, the instruments, objects, purpose and the difficulties and facilities in the process of work. There were also found themes that per approaching set the category Process in Psychosocial Rehabilitation: object, instruments and purpose in the process of psychosocial rehabilitation. The category social representations have allowed to make it understood the conception of workers about the psychosocial rehabilitation, being its purpose the independency, increase of contractual power, rescue of citizenship and the rights: of living, working and reestablish social bonds. The analytical category process of work unveiled the own team process of work and the process of rehabilitate; the discourses have shown contradictions where there is the coexistence the conceptions based on the model of traditional psychiatry and conceptions consistent with the psychosocial rehabilitation one. What limits the possibilities of rehabilitation are: the precariousness in the mental health of public services in São Paulo, lack of human resources and materials, resistance from part of the families. The possibilities are given in the overcoming of practices centered in the disease for centered practices in the persons material and psychosocial necessities. The workers comprehend the psychiatric hospital as a place of zero Exchange, reiterating wide literature about the theme, thats why the purpose in the work process is the cure of the inhabitant. We could say that the work in the shelters allows the patient not to be in the hospital any longer with the chance of a healthier life than in the nursing, because there is the chance of living and not simply being. However, it is important to mention that the inhabitants keep under the control of the psychiatric hospital and its staff, being limited to the institutional, less strict when comparing to the nursing ones, but yet present, the analysis have shown it was understood by the workers making it evident an overcoming in relation to the concept of the hospital as a protector or a place to treat the crisis.

The Critical Role of the Psychiatric Emergency Response Team in the Adoption of a Violence Risk Assessment Tool.

Mackay, Angela 01 January 2017 (has links)
Workplace violence is a persistent problem in health care, and incidence rates have increased over the years. Traditional reporting systems, relying mostly on paper formats, are inadequate for developing effective predictive models for intervention and reducing acts of violence by patients to staff. The purpose of the development and deployment of the psychiatric emergency response team (PERT) was to provide effective intervention within the MIAHTAPS (Altered Mental status, Irritability, Agitation, History of Violence, Threatening, Attacking Objects, Pacing, and Staring) behavior prediction tool to reduce the severity and rates of violence in a hospital setting. Lewin's change theory was used to implement the necessary cultural change for effective deployment of PERT and MIAHTAPS. MIAHTAPS, with PERT as an integral component, was used by the primary nurse on admission and during every care shift to assess patients' potential for violence. Pre- and post- intervention assessments were completed to determine the effectiveness of the intervention. Quantitative and open-ended question responses from 200 nurse participants, who completed the 2 online surveys, were analyzed using descriptive and frequency distributions. Findings from the project showed that nurses could identify patient potential for violence and recognize how to diffuse situations effectively 34% of the time, compared to 14% before PERT. A post-implementation survey showed that 75% of the nurses found the MIAHTAPS and PERT system useful and easy to use. Having an easy-to-use tool that helps to identify potential for violence will help hospital and other workplace staff to develop and implement preventive interventions and as a result promote positive social change.

Factors Influencing Depression in Men: A Qualitative Investigation

Mutiso, Lori A 01 January 2015 (has links)
The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study is to describe men’s experiences of depression in order to provide direction for future research of the screening, diagnosing, and treatment of men's depression. Previous research indicates that men experience different depressive symptoms than women, and there is a possibility that men's depression is not being adequately captured by current screening standards, which would theoretically lead to a large number of men with unrecognized, undiagnosed, and untreated depression. If this is the case, this may explain the disproportionately low number of men diagnosed with depression compared to women, in contrast to the disproportionately high number of men who complete suicides. There is a need in the literature for descriptions of depression experienced by men in order to determine the adequacy of current psychometric screening tools and approaches to treatment which are currently in practice. This qualitative study seeks to begin to fill in this gap in the literature. Key findings indicate that intentionally and unintentionally hide their feelings of depression, and that men experience anger as an early sign of depression. In addition, men often do not recognize their distress as depression until someone else suggests they seek professional help; and men use various methods of distraction to cope with their distress, including excessive working, sleeping, eating, TV watching, and alcohol consumption. Recommendations for further research are discussed.

Den trygga fristaden : En studie om hur personer med samtidig psykisk ohälsa och missbruk eller beroende upplever vårdande samtal

Priebe, Åsa January 2014 (has links)
Bakgrund: Den mellanmänskliga relationen, baserad på kommunikation och samtal, utgör kärnan i psykiatriskt vårdande. Denna studie utgår från det vårdande samtalets teori där vårdandets grundmotiv är caritas, en naturlig strävan efter att lindra lidande och bevara patientens värdighet i en vårdande relation. Varje sjuksköterska inom psykiatrisk vård kan förväntas möta personer med samsjuklighet i psykisk ohälsa och missbruk eller beroende. Ökad kunskap om dessa personers upplevelser av vårdande samtal förväntas dels öka förståelsen för deras lidande, dels utveckla sjuksköterskans förmåga att i samtalet kombinera etisk hållning, lyhördhet och praktiskt agerande, vilket kan bidra till att fler personer med denna typ av samsjuklighet kan erbjudas samtal som upplevs som vårdande och därmed lindrar lidande. Syfte: Syftet med denna intervjustudie är att belysa upplevelser av vårdande samtal hos personer med samtidig psykisk ohälsa och missbruk eller beroende. Metod: Studien har en fenomenologisk-hermeneutisk ansats för att möjliggöra en djupare förståelse av innebörden i informanternas levda erfarenhet. Fem personer intervjuades om sina upplevelser av vårdande samtal. Resultat: Resultatet presenteras utifrån tre innebördsteman: Där ömsesidigheten skapar trygghet och gemenskap, Ett livsrum där lidandet synliggörs och begripliggörs och Där självaktningen återupprättas. Dessa teman strålar samman i huvudtemat Den trygga fristaden där lidande lindras och värdighet och självaktning återupprättas. Slutsats:Det vårdande samtalet har i denna studie visat sig bidra till att lidande lindras och värdighet och självaktning återupprättas hos personer med samsjuklighet i psykisk ohälsa och missbruk eller beroende. Det vårdande samtalet erbjuder inte bara möjlighet att förmedla och bearbeta lidande utan ger också, med sjuksköterskans stöd, utrymme för lärande och för att hitta de egna resurserna, vilket leder till ökad hälsa, autonomi och självaktning. Genom ytterligare forskning om det vårdande samtalet ur ett patientperspektiv kan evidens samlas som gör att det i daglig klinisk verksamhet än mer kan komma att betraktas som en självklar del i vårdande som lindrar lidande. / Background: The interpersonal relationship, based on communication and conversation, is the core of psychiatric caring. This study uses the theory of the caring conversation as a starting point, where the basis for caring is caritas, an inherent endeavor to alleviate suffering and preserve patient’s dignity in a caring relationship. Every nurse within psychiatric care can expect to meet people with comorbidity in psychiatric illness and substance use disorders or dependency. Increased knowledge about these people’s experiences of the caring conversation is expected to lead to increased understanding of their suffering, as well as develop nurses’ ability to combine ethical awareness, perceptiveness and practical action in each conversation, which in turn can contribute to that more people with this kind of comorbidity can be offered conversations that are caring and thereby alleviate suffering. Aim: The aim of this interview study is to illustrate experiences of caring conversations for people with comorbidity in psychiatric illness and substance use disorders or dependency. Methods: The study has a phenomenological-hermeneutical approach to enable a deaper understanding of the meaning of the lived experience of the informants. Five people were interviewed about their experiences of caring conversations. Findings: The result is presented through three themes of meaning: Where reciprocity creates safety and communion, A lebensraum where suffering is made visible and understandable and Where self-esteem is restituted. These themes come together in the main theme The safe sanctuary where suffering is alleviated and dignity and self-esteem is restituted. Conclusion: It is apparent in this study that the caring conversation contributes to alleviated suffering and restituted dignity and self-esteem for people with comorbidity in psychiatric illness and substance use disorder or dependency. The caring conversation not only provides an opportunity to convey and process suffering, but is also, with the nurse’s support, a forum for learning and for discovering one’s own resources, which leads to increased health, autonomy and self-esteem. With more research about the caring conversation from a patient perspective, evidence can be gathered that will make the caring conversation in daily clinical practice an even more natural part of caring that alleviates suffering.
