Book Innovations in Global Mental Health

Download or read book Innovations in Global Mental Health written by Samuel O. Okpaku and published by Springer. This book was released on 2021-11-03 with total page 1612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the course of the last decade, political and mental entities at large have embraced global mental health: the idea that psychiatric health is vital to improved quality of life. Physicians globally have implemented guidelines recommended by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) in 2007, thereby breaking down barriers to care and improving quality of life in areas where these practices have been implemented. Programs for training and education have expanded as a result. Clinicians benefit more from both local resources in some regions as well as in international collaboration and technological advancements. Even amidst all of these positive outcomes, clinicians still face some stumbling blocks. With worldwide statistics estimating that 450 million people struggle with mental, neuropsychiatric, and neurological disorders—25 percent of the world’s non-communicable disease burden—rising to these challenges prove to be no small feat, even in wealthy Western nations. Various articles and books have been published on global mental health, but few of them thoroughly cover the clinical, research, innovative, and social implications as they pertain to psychiatry; often, only one of these aspects is covered. A comprehensive text that can keep pace with the rapidly evolving literature grows more and more valuable each day as clinicians struggle to piece together the changes around the world that leave open the possibility for improved outcomes in care. This book seeks to boldly rectify this situation by identifying innovative models of service delivery, training, education, research funding, and payment systems that have proven to be exemplary in implementation and scalability or have potential for scalability. Chapters describe specific barriers and challenges, illuminating effective strategies for improved outcomes. This text is the first peer-reviewed resource to gather prestigious physicians in global mental health from around the world and disseminate their expertise in the medical community at large in a format that is updateable, making it a truly cutting-edge resource in a world constantly changed by medical, scientific, and technological advances. Innovations in Global Mental Health is the ultimate resource for psychiatrists, psychologists, primary care physicians, hospitalists, policy makers, and all medical professionals at the forefront of global mental health and its implications for the future.

Book La intervenci  n psicoeducativa de Fawzy y Fawzy para pacientes oncol  gicos

Download or read book La intervenci n psicoeducativa de Fawzy y Fawzy para pacientes oncol gicos written by Paula Martínez López and published by Comercial Grupo ANAYA, S.A.. This book was released on 2019-01-24 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El cuaderno de trabajo de la terapia psicoeducativa de Fawzy y Fawzy para pacientes oncológicos presentado en esta obra recoge, con un lenguaje comprensible para la persona que se enfrenta a la enfermedad, los aspectos clave sobre los que pivota la intervención. La reflexión sobre nuestras creencias implícitas respecto a cómo funciona el mundo, y que, a buen seguro, van a ser desafiadas por el diagnóstico y tratamiento de un cáncer, así como el entrenamiento en manejo del estrés (toma de conciencia, técnicas de resolución de problemas, relajación, etc.), constituyen elementos centrales de la terapia que se presenta. Su elemento más característico es el recorrido que se efectúa a través de situaciones clave en el proceso de la enfermedad y sus posibles estrategias de afrontamiento. El uso de láminas que dramatizan mediante imágenes lo que constituiría en cada caso un afrontamiento disfuncional y otro funcional facilita el reconocimiento por parte de la persona de las estrategias empleadas y potencia el debate, reflexión y modificación, en su caso, de aquellas formas de afrontamiento desadaptativas. Todo el material que compone el cuaderno de trabajo elaborado por Fawzy y Fawzy, incluyendo veintidós láminas actualizadas adaptadas al cáncer de mama, y disponible para el lector en soporte digital para facilitar su uso, queda recogido en esta obra que dota al profesional de la psicología de un recurso útil, práctico y eficaz para la práctica clínica.

Book El desaf  o del c  ncer

    Book Details:

  • Publisher : Shackleton Books
  • Release : 2023-02-21
  • ISBN : 8413612543
  • Pages : 139 pages

Download or read book El desaf o del c ncer written by Charo Antequera Jurado and published by Shackleton Books. This book was released on 2023-02-21 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un libro que se propone ser una guía psicológica útil para todos aquellos que necesiten respuestas ante el difícil desafío del cáncer. En su labor como psicooncóloga, Charo Antequera lleva más de una década acompañando a pacientes adultos de cáncer a lo largo del proceso de la enfermedad. Durante ese tiempo, ha podido observar como cada paciente tiene una manera única de entender, convivir y enfrentarse a la dolencia, que suele depender de la combinación de una serie de factores personales: su capacidad de controlar las emociones, la forma de afrontar las vicisitudes de la vida, la autovaloración y el apoyo familiar y social. Se trata, además, de un proceso dinámico, pues no genera las mismas inquietudes ni requiere de las mismas respuestas el momento del diagnóstico que el comienzo del tratamiento, o la cronificación de la enfermedad. Por ello, en este libro viajaremos de la mano de muchos testimonios que conforman un retrato de las distintas fases del proceso del cáncer y sus vivencias. Juntos intentaremos encontrar respuestas a las preguntas de los enfermos («¿Volveré a ser la que era?» «Si hago todo lo que me dicen, ¿podré superar el cáncer?» «Me han dicho que la actitud es fundamental para recuperarme, ¿qué me pasará si me vengo abajo?»), pero también de quienes conviven con la enfermedad, de aquellos que ya la han superado –los llamados «supervivientes»– o del personal sanitario que los atiende. El cáncer afecta a todas las áreas vitales de quienes lo padecen y les fuerza a crear nuevas maneras de entenderse a uno mismo, la vida y las relaciones con los demás. Este libro quiere ser un apoyo útil para todos aquellos que necesiten respuestas ante el difícil desafío del cáncer.
