Saúde mental: um desafio para a equipe azul do centro de saúde Eduardo Mauro de Araújo - Belo Horizonte

Abstract

Mental suffering is a problem that worries health professionals and society in general, for even today promotes social exclusion and is still a disease difficult to control. It is a change of cognitive and affective processes of development which translates into disturbances under the reasoning, behavior, understanding of reality and adaptation to the conditions of life causing serious harm to the patient and his family. The Health Center Mauro Eduardo de Araújo, has no action to meet the needs of these patients, this due to the long time it remained with incomplete UBS team and the lack of a professional psychiatrist. This study aimed to raise problems involving attention to mental patients, as well as devise a strategy to meet this audience and their families, within the primary care through health education. The methodology used in preparing the intervention project was the Situational Strategic Planning, proposed in the Planning Module and Evaluation of Health Actions, the Specialization in Health Strategy UFMG family. In addition, a literature review for articles available in health databases was carried out, such as: SCIELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online Google Scholar), in Portuguese, using as descriptors: mental health, health education, strategic planning and mental suffering. Finally an intervention proposal was drawn up in order to develop actions that can reduce the incidence of unplanned pregnancy in the area covered by the ESF Village Recreation. In this direction have been proposed actions to better organize the work process of professionals who treat adolescents in the ESF, raise awareness of them about contraceptive methods, promoting educational activities and training of young multipliers.
