“…Certaines sont évoquées par les trois acteurs, comme la problématique des représentations sociales des maladies mentales. En effet, plusieurs études démontrent l'importance de la stigmatisation et la discrimination sociale des patients souffrant d'une maladie mentale [22][23][24][25][26][27]. Les trois groupes évoquent également la nécessité de développer le travail avec les familles en termes d'accompagnement, d'information et de formation.…”

À third of the murderers did not have any kind of mental disorder (n = 73). Fifty-two (24%) were mentally ill. Two thirds had a history of mental illness and one third had a record of previous convictions of violence. Crimes were mostly committed at night-time and in the house of the victim. The most common method of killing was stabbing. 14 % had symptoms of mental illness at the time of the offence. The 217 victims were, in decreasing order, a family member, a current or former spouse/partner (53%), an acquaintance (30%) or a stranger (17%). The forensic and juridical consequences (via the application of former article 64 or the present article 122-1 of the French Criminal Code) were envisaged in less than ten per cent of the cases.Conclusions: These data allowed the authors to determine the general risk factors of homicidal violence (male gender, youth and alcohol abuse) as well as some more specific factors (mental illness, co-morbidities…). The dynamic characteristics of the meeting of the crime protagonists should be added to these factors.

“…People with psychiatric illnesses are often discriminated against and stigmatized in several societies [1] [2] [3] [4] [5]. This discrimination can extend to psychiatry as a medical discipline and to the staff in charge of these patients [6] [7] and is known as "associative stigma, with the consequence that psychiatry [8] is disaffected and that psychiatric staff has a poor perception of their own working environment.…”

Background: In Congo-Brazzaville, there is a lake of mental healthcare provider and facilities specialized on psychiatric care: only two psychiatrists and one psychiatric department around the country. Poor appreciation of their role and work environment can negatively impact the esteem of psychiatric staff and lead to stigma and discrimination towards patients. Aims: The study aimed to assess the perception of the staff of the only psychiatric service in Congo. Material and methods: We conducted a cross-sectional descriptive, prospective survey; conducted among the psychiatric staff of the Brazzaville University Hospital in September 2019. An anonymous individual questionnaire was administered to collect: 1) socio-professional data, 2) perceptions (assignment, role, workload and working conditions), and 3) identify the main problems of the service. Averages and frequencies were calculated on Epi info 7.2.2.6. Results: Thirty out of 42 staff had responded (71.4%); 16 were male and at their first psychiatric assignment (28/30), with an average age of 44.7 ± 7 and seniority of 8.4 ± 8.3 years. Among them: one psychiatrist, two psychologists, and 19 nurses. Their assignment in psychiatry was well perceived in 93.3% (27/30), as well as their role (the importance of psychiatric care and psychiatry). Working conditions were perceived as poor: precarious hygiene (93.3%), cohabitation with dangerous patients (82.1%), heavy workload due to lack of staff (100%). Of their professional future, 23.3% (7/30) were considering leaving. Conclusion: Almost all psychiatric staff had a good perception of their role and psychiatry, but not of the working conditions. Local measures to improve working conditions must be carried out to improve the attractiveness of psychiatry and the quality of care.
