Impacto de la intervención del Equipo de Apoyo Social Comunitario en el FuncionamientoPsicosocial de las Personas con Enfermedad Mental Grave

Abstract

Esta novedad del recurso hace que no se cuente con datos sobre su eficacia; se propone un estudio multi-recurso que pretende demostrar la efectividad de la labor realizada por los EASC, y su impacto positivo en el funcionamiento psicosocial de las personas con enfermedad mental grave y duradera. Los resultados indican que la intervención del EASC facilita que la persona mantenga autonomía en su vida, permaneciendo en el entorno, usando menos recursos hospitalarios y cada vez más servicios de la comunidad. La sensación de la integración social y la percepción de calidad de vida, así como el nivel de satisfacción de fami-Antonio Bertina es Educador en el Equipo de Apoyo Social y Comunitario Fuencarral (EASC) Fuencarral.Grupo5; Javier Motos Chacón es Educador en el EASC Fuencarral.

Intervenciones para reducir el estigma hacia personas con trastornos mentales graves en Iberoamérica: una revisión sistemática

“…We eliminated 215 studies that were conducted in countries other than Ibero-America, thereby 305 studies met the eligibility conditions. We discarded 287 studies that did not involve interventions and mainly cor- The types of studies that predominated were quantitative ones (n = 13), of which nine corresponded to quasi-experimental studies (38)(39)(40)44,(48)(49)(50)(51)54), and four to experimental studies (41,43,47,53). Out of the four studies with a qualitative approach, three corresponded to case studies using a group approach (56): The first one involved information strategies through the use of social networks (55), the second and the third used a direct contact strategy between the students and the mental health service users (45,46), and the fourth included the development of a training program for professionals (51).…”

“…Previous studies have shown that gender can be a confounding variable for the results of interventions because women demonstrate a greater reduction in stigma (23). Accordingly, seven studies out of those reviewed considered this variable in their analyses (38)(39)(40)(41)(42)(43)49). Table 2 summarizes the criteria for evaluating the quality of the studies.…”

“…19 (1): 1-27, enero-abril de 2021 size of 265-1019 (38)(39)(40)49). The majority of the interventions of the reviewed studies were based on psychoeducation (n = 7) (39,44,47,48,(52)(53)(54), education (n = 4) (41,50, 51,55), both education and contact (n = 5) (38,42,43,46,49), both psychoeducation and contact (n = 1) (45), and one was based on a massive campaign (n = 1) (40). All of the studies reported the duration of the intervention.…”

“…Some were classified as short-term, which according to Yamaguchi are those that were conducted in a period of <1 month (23); 7 of the studies fit this description (41)(42)(43)45,(48)(49)(50). Other interventions were medium-and long-term, which according to Mehta are those conducted between 1 and 6 months and >6 months, respectively (57); 8 studies were medium-term (38,40,46,47,(51)(52)(53)(54), and three were long-term (39,44,55). A total of 11 studies were performed pre-and post-tests to determine the effect of the interventions (38,39,(41)(42)(43)(44)47,49,50,52,53), and only 33.3% of the studies reviewed reported some type of follow-up after the intervention (38,40,41,43,54,55).…”

“…A study conducted in Spain by Ballesteros and Bertina evaluated a community intervention that involved multidisciplinary activities, intervention at home, and social support (39). The interest of the research group was focused on the impact of social and occupational functioning with the perception of stigma being a secondary variable that was determined from the decrease in feelings of low self-esteem and the deterioration of self-concept.…”
