BASTOS, Fabrício José Souza et al. Mental health in mobile pre-hospital care: Conceptions of the professionals. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2016, n.spe4, pp.17-24. ISSN 1647-2160.  https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0136.

BACKGROUND: Many health professionals still preserve remnants of asylum thought, which interferes directly in the production of care and understanding of Care Networks Health and Psychosocial Care. AIM: To grasp the concepts of the professionals involved in prehospital care about mental health care. METHODS: descriptive and exploratory study from fragments of speeches of 28 professionals SAMU in the city of Itabuna-BA, which act directly on the user assistance. Content analysis technique for thematic categorization was used. The research was submitted to the Research Ethics Committee in Human Beings of EERP/USP, based on the opinion of Embodied No. 543 516 on 02/27/2014. RESULTS: There were negative conceptions regarding mental health, which reproduce a fragmented care model that segregates the "crazy" to other areas, not allowing equality in access to extended care, understanding this subject as different, threatening, leading to exclusion and the idea that the only option is referral/hospitalization in a psychiatric hospital. CONCLUSIONS: Fragmented concepts on health decrease access to services and empowerment opportunities of mental patients. The reorientation of this thought is needed to improve service and promote this professional commitment with a focus on expanded and full health with the prospect of improved access to ready the network services, regardless of the user who will use the SAMU.
