Resumen
FLORES, Douglas. The importance of health professionals in deinstitutionalizing the stigma of individuals with mental disorders. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2020, n.23, pp.41-46. ISSN 1647-2160. https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0271.
BACKGROUND: Mental disorders are part of the human condition and widely studied phenomena, but psychophysiological and geopolitical conditions associated with them are historically stigmatized. Therefore, there is a need to address how the idea of mental illness has been constructed in the past few centuries and how it has affected the way mental disorders are interpreted and stigmatized in current times. AIM: To analyze the conditions that involve care involving mental patients and propose ways of work that can be developed by health professionals to positively impact their lives and allow the best form of treatment, healthy relationships, protagonism and healing. METHODS: A bibliographic review search to find scientific literature to support the reflections made, more specifically in sociological and psychological materials. CONCLUSIONS: Proposals were made that humanized work be instituted in mental health contexts, and that this would provide an opportunity for patients to organize their narratives, have greater well-being and overcome conditions of social vulnerability.
