Abstract:

IntroductionLiasion psychiatry is a clinical area of psychiatry that includes psychiatric assistant activities in other medical and surgical areas of a general hospital. In Portugal, it has developed as a result of psychiatry integration in general hospitals. Historically, it started at the beginning of 1930s in USA. In Portugal, the law 413 of 1971 definned the articulation of mental health services with other health services–liasion psychiatry.ObjectiveWe aim to define patients evaluated in the context of liasion psychiatry, as well as other medical and surgical areas needs of psychiatry collaboration.MethodsRetrospective analyses of collaboration requests realized to psychiatry department of centro hospitalar Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro–Vila Real, between October 2014 and October 2015.DiscussionMost of collaboration requests came from Internal Medicine Service. Authors systematize the reasons for the requests, the time of response to those, the existence of psychiatric history, the type of intervention, the number of observations in the same patient, the most frequent diagnosis and treatment. This psychiatric service consists of four specialists and activity evaluated in this article is one of the clinical areas where these professionals intervene. Depending on the results, it is interesting then to assess needs and optimize available resources.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:

The education and training needed for health professionals performing person centered medicine in a prison hospital is presented. The health professionals involved work in the department for forensic psychiatry of a prison hospital and conduct mandatory psychiatric treatment during a person’s prison sentence using a bio-psycho-social model of treatment and rehabilitation. Such health professionals work with mentally ill people having partially diminished capacity who perpetrated criminal activities and were sentenced according to the Croatian Criminal Code or Criminal Procedures Act and the Law for the Protection of Persons with Mental Illness. Required professional skills include capabilities to provide person-centered psychiatric treatment aimed at reducing psychopathology, articulating theoretical concepts, therapeutic procedures, health professionals' roles and self-understanding, interpersonal issues, relations between patient/prisoner and health professional, ethical dilemmas, and challenges establishing partnerships. Since each patient is also a person serving a prison sentence, the health professional must also know the legislative framework, work as a civil servant, pass the State service examination and be part of a team with different types of other professionals, particularly social workers, occupational therapists, prison officers, court officers, and state officers. For health professionals to practice person centered medicine in a prison setting is a quite demanding and stressful challenge. It may be the hardest way to practice, but it is the right way to do it.

Abstract:

No campo da saúde mental, os Centros de Atenção Psicossocial - CAPS se destacam por serem um serviço de base territorial com diversas possibilidades de intervenção, dentre as quais destacamos as atividades grupais. Neste estudo, buscou-se compreender o significado das atividades de grupo para os usuários de um CAPS, baseado na perspectiva da Ciência Ocupacional. Realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa, utilizando a entrevista aberta com onze usuários do serviço, e observação livre com registro em diário de campo de cada atividade grupal. A análise do conteúdo das entrevistas indicou as atividades de grupo como estratégia importante na assistência em saúde mental, enquanto espaço de expressão e partilha de experiências e sentimentos, favorecimento das relações sociais e da autopercepção que influenciavam em sua saúde. Observou-se também que funcionavam como estratégia terapêutica relevante para o cuidado em saúde mental, pois permitiam satisfação pessoal e preenchiam o tempo dos usuários significativamente, de modo que viabilizou a discussão da possibilidade ocupacional veiculada por meio dos grupos. Nesse sentido, este estudo possibilitou a articulação entre as ações da Terapia Ocupacional, ancoradas na Ciência da Ocupação, impulsionando refletir sobre a fundamentação teórica e outros campos do conhecimento científico na área, sendo um horizonte que pode nortear as práticas dessa profissão, além de incitar a reflexão de modos distintos de compreender as ocupações humanas, nos quais as atividades em grupo podem se constituir como possibilidade ocupacional. In the field of mental health, the Psychosocial Care Centers - CAPS stand out as a territorial base service with several possibilities for intervention, among which we highlight the group activities, so in this study, we seek to understand the meaning of group activities for The users of a CAPS, based on the perspective of Occupational Science. A qualitative research was carried out, using the open interview with eleven users of the service, and free observation with recording in field diary of each group activity. The analysis of the interview content indicated group activities as an important strategy in mental health care, as a space for expressing and sharing experiences and feelings, favoring social relations and self-perception that influenced the participant's health. It was also observed that they allowed personal satisfaction and filled users' time significantly, so that the discussion of the occupational possibility conveyed through the groups was feasible. In this sense, this study also allowed the articulation between the actions of Occupational Therapy, anchored in Occupational Science, impelling to reflect on the theoretical foundation used in the profession and this Science as a possibility, a horizon that guides the occupational therapeutic practices, besides inciting Reflection of different ways of understanding human occupations, in which group activities may constitute an occupational possibility.Keywords: Occupational science; Group practice; Mental health; Occupational therapy.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objective: To analyze the strategies, challenges and possibilities of the articulation between mental health and primary health care from the perspective of health managers. Method: Exploratory, qualitative research carried out with 28 managers of mental health and primary care. The data were collected through semi-structured interviews between July and November 2013 and submitted to thematic content analysis. Results: The inclusion of mental health actions in primary care made it possible, in the view of managers, to increase users’ access to the care they need. This care strategy allows the extension of care practices in the territory, with matrix support as the main tool for the implementation of this care strategy. Final considerations: The articulation between primary care and mental health is a powerful device for psychosocial care, but it demands a new conformation of the Psychosocial Care Centers (Caps) and primary care services.

Abstract:

This paper examines the developing and complex legal relationship between universities and students, or would-be students, who have mental health problems. Discussion takes account of the wider social and policy contexts, including the extent of mental ill-health among the student population, the market for higher education, and government policies towards universities. It contends that the legal position of students with mental health problems demonstrates that there is a need for the relationship between students and universities to be conceptualised with reference to the citizenship ideal rather than the consumer paradigm with which it has tended to become associated in public policy terms.

Abstract:

This study examines the emotional and mental health effects revenge porn has on female survivors. To date, no other academic studies have exclusively focused on mental health effects in revenge porn cases. In-depth qualitative interviews were conducted between February 2014 and January 2015 with 18 female revenge porn survivors, and inductive analysis revealed participants’ experiences of trust issues, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, and several other mental health effects. These findings reveal the seriousness of revenge porn, the devastating impacts it has on survivors’ mental health, and similarities between revenge porn and sexual assault.

Abstract:

In this paper the author draws attention to how the images and themes in therapeutic groups evolve from the articulation of the ‘associative chains’, and how these evolve at a particular, intermediate, metaphorical semantic level, which is more ‘real’ (‘associative chains’), because of the inter-subjective nature of this process. The construction of images and thematic objects and their ‘use’ by the group, in Winnicottian terms, comprises one of the most productive and creative functions of the group in group therapy.

Abstract:

AbstractTo what extent does previous and existing health economics research directly address key health system financing issues facing mental health services in developing countries? By mapping WHO's health systems framework onto mental health, three key financing questions for mental health are identified: the sufficiency of resources for mental health; the protection of individuals or households against the economic consequences of mental ill-health; and the efficient use of available resources for mental health. Research efforts to date have mainly focused on the evaluation of intervention costs in relation to mental health outcomes (the efficiency question). There is a need to achieve a greater balance between economic analysis (aimed at identifying best buys) versus financial planning (scaling up the delivery or implementation of interventions shown to be cost-effective). In addition, a better understanding and clearer articulation of the negative impact of mental disorders at the household level is needed, together with ways of alleviating financial burden via appropriate and affordable pre-payment financing mechanisms.

Abstract:

<p>The powers enshrined in mental health legislation go directly to fundamental principles central to any caring and democratic society. The tension and dilemma that exists is, on the one hand, the importance of respect for an individual’s right to make decision’s affecting his/her own life to, on the other, the recognition that there are people with mental disabilities that may be vulnerable to abuse and/or neglect and who throughout their lives or at particular times need care and/or treatment, which they may not seek or be able to consent to themselves. In any society it is through case law and statute that an attempt is made to resolve this tension and to ensure that individual rights are not infringed and that those who need care and treatment receive what is in their best interest. Thus a change in such legislation requires the most rigorous of examination and must be judged on the grounds that it a) does not infringe accepted principles such as those of the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights and the European Convention, b) is based on sound ethical principles and does not conflict with the established law of the country, and c) it is practicable and achieves the right balance with respect to the potential tension described above. As practising clinicians (one working in an acute psychiatric service the other in a district learning disability service) we are not in a position expertly to judge the first of these but we believe we can contribute to the second and the third. In this paper we consider specifically the reasons for, and the consequences that follow, the failure on the Government’s part to accept the central importance of decision-making capacity assessment in any new mental health legislation.</p><p>The Green Paper proposals for a new Mental Health Act for England and Wales have now been published. A broad definition of ‘mental disorder’ has been retained, a new system of tribunals is to be established and compulsory treatment in the community would become lawful. However, it rejects the recommendation of the expert committee chaired by Professor Richardson that the assessment of an individual’s decision-making capacity should be a determining factor in the use of compulsory detention. Given this, it does not address the relationship between this legislation and the proposed Mental Incapacity Act. The failure to recognise the central place of decision-making capacity in a modern Mental Health Act is, we believe, a serious omission as it is a reflection of a failure to acknowledge that the basic principle of autonomy is central to such legislation.</p>

ABSTRACT: This article aims to analyze the Lacanian notion of jouissance and its connection to the notion of death drive. Our purpose is to highlight the evolution of the articulation between these two notions across Lacan’s teaching. When Lacan first gives a theoretical basis to the notion of jouissance, he criticizes the validity of death drive as a concept. Ten years later, death drive is rehabilitated and partially assimilated to jouissance. Between these two moments, jouissance plays a central role in the French psychoanalyst’s teaching.

Abstract:

SummaryIn a landmark decision, the Supreme Court of the UK ruled that the state has a special operational duty to protect the right to life in informal psychiatric in-patients (‘Rabone case'), in sharp distinction to general medical or surgical patients. We will argue that the significance of this case is general, not just local, and that it exposes four important unresolved problems in mental health law: the place of decision-making capacity; the meaning of ‘informal’ admission; parity between mental and physical health; and the accuracy of risk assessment.

Abstract:

Australia has a generally progressive approach to mental health law, reflective of international trends in human rights. Responsibility for most legislation is vested in the six States and two Territories, a total of eight jurisdictions, such that at any given time several new mental health acts are in preparation. In addition there is a model mental health act that promotes common standards. Transfer of orders between jurisdictions relies on Memoranda of Understanding between them, and is patchy. State and Territory legislation is generally cognisant of international treaty obligations, which are themselves the preserve of the Federal Parliament and legislature. UK legislation has had a key influence in Australia, the 1959 Mental Health Act in particular, with its strong emphasis on voluntary hospitalisation, prefacing deinstitutionalisation.

The French Republic has had four laws governing the detention of people with a mental illness. The first dates from 1838 and remained in place until 1990. The most recent one was issued on 27 September 2013; it confirmed the role of the judge and strengthened the legal procedures. This new French mental health law is an attempt to find a balance between the protection of patients' rights and the need for treatment.

These will require that the State must provide effective supervisory mechanisms to ensure that mentally incapacitated people are not deprived of their liberty (Article 5) and do not have their right of bodily integrity interfered with (Article 8) without lawful authority.</p>

Abstract:

This article demonstrates how prison food is controlled by the state through denying female prisoners’ choices in food consumption and excluding them from active roles in cooking. Narratives of women in three prisons of India have been used to analyze their experiences with prison food. A majority of inmates perceived food as negatively affecting their health during imprisonment. Some were found to use it as a medium to recreate special identities for themselves, contesting the power of the prison. The study suggests the need for better articulation of the intricate relationship between power, health, and food in Indian prison settings.

Abstract:

Scotland’s parochial asylums are unfamiliar institutional spaces. Representing the concrete manifestation of the collision between two spheres of legislation, the Poor Law and the Lunacy Law, six such asylums were constructed in the latter half of the nineteenth century. These sites expressed the enduring mandate of the Scottish Poor Law 1845 over the domain of ‘madness’. They were institutions whose very existence was fashioned at the directive of the local arm of the Poor Law, the parochial board, and they constituted a continuing ‘Scottish Poor Law of Lunacy’. Their origins and operation significantly subverted the intentions and objectives of the Lunacy Act 1857, the aim of which had been to institute a public district asylum network with nationwide coverage.

Abstract:

Globally, established practice in mental health services has tended to be codified into law in ways that are paternalistic, seeking to make decisions for patients that presume ‘best interest’ and which ultimately place power in the hands of medical authority. The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) – which has been widely ratified globally – challenges these assumptions, instead placing the expressed will and preference of patients as the most important factor in decision-making, including treatment and consent to admission. The contradictions between these approaches cause profound challenges in legislation reform, but a human rights framework offers the potential for a paradigm shift in the way that people are treated in services, and in exploration of alternative practices that promise a more humane and dignified future for mental health care.

Abstract:

Incompleteness (INC) and Harm Avoidance (HA) are known core dimensions of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Emotional processing and inhibitory learning (IL) have both been proposed as viable mechanisms of exposure for the alleviation of HA, yet the relationship with INC remains unclear. This study evaluated differential manipulation responses to induced INC. The authors specifically tested whether targeting the key component of IL, expectancy violation generated by the discrepancy between an articulated prediction and the actual exposure experience, would lead to improved outcomes. A sample of undergraduates (N = 68) completed a series of behavioral tasks to induce INC, followed by manipulations (exposure with or without articulated predictions) to reduce INC reactions. Results show that modest changes were observed following reduction manipulations following INC induction. Furthermore, heightened HA predicted the changes of induced sensations. Mediation tests showed that articulation of predicted sensations mediated pre- to postreduction ratings. Clinical and research implications are discussed.

Abstract:

Purpose A strong body of research has established the concentration of crime in a small number of street segments or “hot spots” throughout urban cities, but the spatial distribution of mental health-related calls for services is less well known. The extent to which these calls are concentrated on a small number of street segments, similar to traditional crime calls for service is understudied. The purpose of this paper is to examine the concentration of mental health calls and the spatial distribution of street segments with mental health calls to provide directions for law enforcement and place-based policing. Design/methodology/approach Using call for service data from a large city on the East coast, the current study examines whether mental health calls for service are concentrated on street segments, and tests spatial dispersion to whether these “mental health hot spots” are spread throughout the city or clustered in space. Finally, the authors explore the relationship between mental health calls and violent and drug calls by calculating the correlation and using a spatial point pattern test to determine if mental health calls are spatially similar to violent and drug calls. Findings The authors found that mental health calls are concentrated on street segments; specifically 22.4 percent of calls are located on 0.5 percent of city street segments. Additionally, these street segments are fairly dispersed throughout the city. When comparing the spatial similarity of mental health calls to violent and drug calls, they are highly correlated suggesting a relationship between the calls types, but the location of mental health calls appears to be different from violet and drug calls. Originality/value Very few studies have examined the location of mental health calls and whether they are concentrated in small areas similar to crime, but such research can provide police officers new approaches to working with people with mental health problems. The police are the primary emergency response for calls involving someone with a mental illness or experiencing a mental health crisis and the authors provide suggestions for policing that draw from strategies used in hot spot policing and mental health responses, like CIT, to address challenges of modern policing and working with people with mental health problems.

Abstract:

Introduction: This study aimed to explore how healthcare professionals and users could perceive user involvement in the handover between mental health hospitals and community mental healthcare, drawing on the discourse analysis framework from Fairclough. Methods: A qualitative research design with purposive sampling was adopted. Five audio-recorded focus group interviews with nurses, users and other health professionals were explored using Fairclough’s discourse analysis framework. Ethical approval: The study was designed following the ethical principles of the Helsinki Declaration and Danish Law. Each study participant in the two intersectoral sectors gave their informed consent after verbal and written information was provided. Results: This study has shown how users can be subject to paternalistic control despite the official aims that user involvement should be an integral part of the care and treatment offered. As evidenced in discussions by both health professionals and the users themselves, the users were involved in plans with the handover on conditions determined by the health professionals who were predominantly focused on treating diseases and enabling the users to live a life independent of professional help. Conclusions: Our results can contribute to dealing with the challenges of incorporating user involvement as an ideology in the handover between mental health hospitals and community mental health. There is a need to start forming a common language across sectors and, jointly, for professionals and users to draw up plans for intersectoral care.

Abstract:

BackgroundThere are ongoing questions about whether unemployment has causal effects on suicide as this relationship may be confounded by past experiences of mental illness. The present review quantified the effects of adjustment for mental health on the relationship between unemployment and suicide. Findings were used to develop and interpret likely causal models of unemployment, mental health and suicide.MethodA random-effects meta-analysis was conducted on five population-based cohort studies where temporal relationships could be clearly ascertained.ResultsResults of the meta-analysis showed that unemployment was associated with a significantly higher relative risk (RR) of suicide before adjustment for prior mental health [RR 1.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.33–1.83]. After controlling for mental health, the RR of suicide following unemployment was reduced by approximately 37% (RR 1.15, 95% CI 1.00–1.30). Greater exposure to unemployment was associated with higher RR of suicide, and the pooled RR was higher for males than for females.ConclusionsPlausible interpretations of likely pathways between unemployment and suicide are complex and difficult to validate given the poor delineation of associations over time and analytic rationale for confounder adjustment evident in the revised literature. Future research would be strengthened by explicit articulation of temporal relationships and causal assumptions. This would be complemented by longitudinal study designs suitable to assess potential confounders, mediators and effect modifiers influencing the relationship between unemployment and suicide.

Abstract:

The objective of this article is to compare various ethical issues considered by social scientists and research ethics committees in the evaluation of mental health social research protocols. We contacted 47 social scientists and 10 members of ethics committees in Mexico with two electronic national surveys that requested information from both groups related to the application of ethical principles in mental health social research. The results showed no significant difference between these groups in the value placed on the ethical issues explored. Based on this finding, we make proposals to strengthen the collaboration between the two groups.

Abstract:

In Romania, the protection of persons with mental health disorders concerns various legal institutions central to civil law. The protective instruments in place vary between general instruments of civil law (Civil Code of 2009 and special measures in specific legislation, in particular the Mental Health Law of 2002. The Mental Health Law provides for medical measures, in particular voluntary and compulsory hospitalisation in a psychiatric hospital or compulsory ambulatory medical treatment. The Law also provides for procedural safeguards in case of compulsory measures. When it comes to legal capacity, the Civil Code provides for certain protective regimes that can be established for adults with mental disorders. A person that is unable to take care of its interests may be put by court under “judicial interdiction” meaning that legal capacity is reduced to small transactions with immediate performance, and a special guardian is to be appointed. Another instrument, the assistence of elderly people, has been introduced by a special law.

Abstract:

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to describe the current state of law enforcement training related to the high number of interactions with persons with mental illness, and to recommend next steps in preparing law enforcement to effectively meet this challenge. Design/methodology/approach The authors reviewed the current literature on relevant law enforcement training programs, focusing primarily on crisis intervention team (CIT) training, and used the case example of California to identify opportunities to improve and enhance law enforcement preparedness for the challenge of responding to persons with mental illness. Findings Broad-based community partnerships working together to develop programs that meet the local needs of both those with mental illness and law enforcement, the availability of mental health treatment centers with no-refusal policies, and a coordinating person or agency to effectively liaise among stakeholders are critical enhancements to CIT training. Originality/value As increasing attention is paid to adverse interactions between police and vulnerable populations, this paper identifies policies that would build on existing training programs to improve police responses to persons with mental illness.

Abstract:

BackgroundThe production of grammatically complex sentences is impaired in schizophrenia. It has been suggested that impaired syntax processing reflects a risk for the disorder.AimsTo examine the neural correlates of syntax production in people with schizophrenia using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).MethodSix patients with schizophrenia and six healthy volunteers spoke about seven Rorschach inkblots for 3 min each while correlates of brain activation were measured with fMRI. Participants produced varying amounts of syntactically simple and complex sentences during each 3 min run. The number of simple and complex sentences was correlated separately with the BOLD contrast.ResultsIn the comparison between the control group and the patient group, the number of complex sentences produced was correlated with activation in the posterior portion of the right middle temporal (Brodmann area 21) and left superior frontal (BA 10) gyri in the control group but not in the patients.ConclusionsThe absence of activation in the right posterior temporal and left superior frontal cortex in patients with schizophrenia might contribute to the articulation of grammatically more simple speech in people with this disorder.

Abstract:

This article looks briefly at two famous judges, Lord Bowen in the 19th century and Sir Owen Dixon in the 20th century and asks what made them somewhat lugubrious about studying law? The article makes four suggestions for improving the mental health and well-being of the profession: these are mentoring, pro-bono work, ethical training and creative opportunities. These four pervasive ‘law plus’ areas of endeavour, or quatrains, which form part of the literature on legal professional wellness, could be pervasively woven into the law school curriculum. These elements could likewise unite the various stages between education, training and professional development.

Abstract:

Mental health is currently one of the most expensive health care issues. The cost of treating mental illness’s effects not only impacts the health care industry as a whole, but also imposes indirect costs on businesses through absenteeism, lower productivity, and reduced earnings. Mental illness, and the effects of mental illness, costs the U.S. economy several billion dollars in losses every year, with predictions suggesting that these costs will only continue to rise in the next two decades. Between 2006 and 2009 alone the costs of mental health care rose from approximately $57 billion to more than $150 billion. These numbers will likely be exacerbated due to the mental health problems that are continuing to rise within the United States as teenagers and adolescents are experiencing mental illness at escalating rates. Despite the rapid growth of mental illness, mental health coverage has not been expanding to meet the increasing demand for treatment. It is estimated that about 28% of the U.S. population has a diagnosable mental illness, even though only 8% actually seek treatment.

Abstract:

Abstract The pendulum of mental health law has swung between a focus on autonomy and on well-being. At its 25th anniversary, the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) is an important player in this landscape. After describing my experience in school and work before and after the enactment of the ADA, this article sets out the important issues in mental health today and more broadly. I describe other policies driven by the ADA, as well as my work at the Saks Institute for Mental Health Law, Policy, and Ethics. Although this article focuses primarily on mental health impairments and related disabilities, as opposed to intellectual and developmental disabilities, much of what is said here applies broadly to cognitive impairments.

Abstract:

Mental health courts have been established in four Australian jurisdictions to provide a targeted response to people with mental illness and cognitive impairments coming through the courts. This article provides an up-to-date overview of Australian mental health courts, discusses the evidence base underpinning them and identifies three important emerging directions for their future operation. These are the need for a contextualised understanding of the relationship between mental illness and offending, the importance of trauma-informed approaches and the role that peer support workers can play in mental health courts.
