Interfaces between violence and mental health: narrative about work processes in Multi-professional Residence in Health

Abstract

In the present work, the objective was to analyze possible practices of violence prevention and the repair of its effects as a promotion strategy in collective mental health. This is a narrative research on the insertion of a resident psychologist by the UNESC Multi-professional Residence Program in Mental Health and Psychosocial Care, at the Center for the Prevention of Violence and Health Promotion (NUPREVIPS), a device for epidemiological surveillance of Criciúma / SC, in the year 2019. The articulation and mobilization of intersectoral networks stood out as important practices, through methodologies such as matrix support and health education practices, whether for sharing care and ensuring the rights of people who suffered interpersonal, self-inflicted or institutional violence, or for discussion and elaboration of network work processes, as well as the strategies developed for reception and care performed in the service itself, It was evidenced that prevention and intervention in the violence area did not dissociate as a collective coordinator area of mental health, especially with regard to the prevention of health problems after the situation of violence that occurred and is, in a way, out of date as a theme in professional formation in psychology and mental health care practices.
