MENTAL HEALTH EDUCATION AND PROFESSIONAL PRACTICE IN THE PSYCHIATRIC HOSPITAL

ABSTRACT This study aimed at identifying the opinion of professionals about mental health education and professional practice in the psychiatric hospital. It is a descriptive, exploratory study with qualitative approach, developed with 60 professionals of higher education in two psychiatric macro-hospitals in Rio Grande do Norte. Data were collected through a questionnaire, then transcribed, processed according to the Alceste software and subjected to content analysis. The results were structured in two thematic axes and their respective themes: thematic axis 1 - Professional practice in mental health, and thematic axis 2 - Mental health education. The confluence of asymmetries and differences in the performance of the teams in the psychiatric hospital were evident. The resulting scenario reflects the current political and ideological discrepancy of the current Brazilian process of Psychiatric Reform, considering the challenges of implementation and professional qualification in the field of psychosocial care.
