Abstract:
Basic Care has as one of its principles to promote people's first access to the health
system, including those that require mental health care. Mental disorders have a
significant prevalence in modern societies. It is common, then, that health
professionals are constantly faced with patients suffering from psychic disorders.
Thus, mental health care in Primary Care is very strategic due to the ease of the
accessibility of the users and the team, and vice versa. However, despite of its
importance, the realization of mental health practices in Primary Care raises many
doubts, curiosities and fears in Health professionals. This research project came in
the sense of making an analysis of the Mental Health care in Basic Units of Family
Health (UBSF), from the point of view of the Health team, to learn their main needs
and to suggest directed actions. The literature review was carried out from January
08 to 22, 2018. We selected 23 articles, regarding the period from 1990 to 2018 in
databases and virtual libraries, such as LILACS, PUBMED and SCIELO. The study
was descriptive, of a quantitative-qualitative and transversal nature, carried out in 4
Basic Units of Family Health, from a universe of 81, located in the Municipality of
Campina Grande, with a sample of 17 participants. In the research, it was applied to
the teams an adapted questionnaire on care for patients suffering from mental illness
and mental disorders. This was elaborated based on the articles chosen during the
review, containing 4 objectives and 1 discursive questions. As result, we find a need
for training of the professionals involved, continuous support of joint experts and
supply of medicines in an organized way, with well-defined flows and responsibilities.
