Programa de ocio de jóvenes en salud mental

Resumen

Introduccion: el Programa de Ocio de Jovenes en Salud Mental nacio a partir del Programa de Tratamiento de Primeros Episodios Psicoticos (PT-PEP) de la Unidad de Salud Mental del Departamento de Salud de Gandia, destinado a jovenes que han sufrido un primer episodio psicotico, asi como otras personas con plaza en alguno de los recursos de rehabilitacion psicosocial que gestiona la asociacion ASAEM. El objetivo principal era que el grupo sirviera como medio para la adherencia al proceso de recuperacion de los participantes, ademas de identificar el perfil de participantes que pueden beneficiarse del programa, realizar hipotesis acerca de la problematica que pueden presentar respecto a la ocupacion en actividades de ocio, identificar factores que apoyan o limitan la participacion en el ocio y remitir resultados a los servicios de salud mental. Metodo: la metodologia utilizada fue mas alla de la habitual en la organizacion de talleres grupales, introduciendo los conceptos de ocio autogestionado y ocio como fin en si mismo. El estudio se ha llevado a cabo a traves de una investigacion cualitativa, que tras mas de cuatro anos de experiencia del programa ha ofrecido resultados para apoyar la validez de la metodologia, basada en principios propios de Terapia Ocupacional. Conclusion: 45 personas se han beneficiado del programa en 161 sesiones desde el inicio del proyecto a finales de 2014 y ha mantenido su continuidad, demostrando que ha contribuido al vinculo de los participantes a su propio proceso de recuperacion a traves de una propuesta alternativa a programas tradicionales de ocio. Introduction: The Program of leisure for young people in Mental Health services was born from the Program of Treatment of First Psychotic Episodes (PT-PEP in spanish) in the Mental Health Unit at Health Department in Gandia. It was designed for young people who had suffered the first psychotic episode and other people who assist to some psychosocial rehabilitation resources managed by an association called ASAEM. The first objective was that this group could be a way for adherence to the recovery process of the participants, and also other objectives were to identify the profile of participants who can benefit from the program, to make hypotheses about the problems they have with occupation in leisure activities, to identify factors that support or limit participation in leisure and to send results to the Mental Health Services. Methods: Methodology which has been used was beyond the most frequent used in the organization of group programs, inserting the concepts of self-managed leisure and leisure like a purpose in itself. The study is a qualitative research. Having more than four years of experiences the program has offered the results which give support to the validity of the method, based on the principles of Occupational Therapy. Conclusion: Forty five people have had the benefits from the program in 161 sessions since the project started at the end of 2014, and it has kept its continuity, demonstrating its support to the participants for their adherence to their own recovery process through an alternative proposal to traditional leisure programs.
