Abstract

BACKGROUND Across the global landscape, mental health care still exhibits challenges because of the lack of human and professional resources to face its consequences. In Morocco, mental health problems affect mainly adolescents and young adults, with a clear impact on functional engagement in their daily lives. Occupational therapy, as a holistic and person-centered practice, may be an ideal mental health strategy to promote health and well-being through occupation, thereby enabling individuals to participate in regular daily activities. OBJECTIVE To understand, from an intercultural perspective, the point of view of mental health professionals regarding the role and importance of occupation-based practices in Errazi Mental Health Hospital in Salé(Rabat) Morocco. METHOD A qualitative research design was used for this study. Data collection consisted of semi-structured interviews with 12 mental health care professionals (non-occupational therapists). These results were used to gain an understanding of their perspectives regarding the main role of human occupation in mental health services in Morocco, and to incorporate an intercultural outlook in terms of occupational therapy. Data analysis was conducted in three phases, by following the grounded theory methodology. RESULTS Two categories, "dimensions of occupation in Moroccan mental health" and "the interplay between traditional and western perspectives involving mental health" emerged from this research. Both categories included five subcategories. CONCLUSION This study identifies how occupation-based services in Moroccan mental health care require considering not only the cultural perspective of mental health, and the sociocultural meaning rooted in occupations, but also the relevance of incorporating a community-centered approach. Moreover, it discusses how occupational therapy education in Morocco must incorporate an intercultural perspective of the therapy's theory and practice.

了解职业治疗在摩洛哥精神卫生服务中的作用和重要性:来自精神卫生专业人员的观点。
在全球范围内,由于缺乏人力和专业资源来面对其后果,精神卫生保健仍然面临挑战。在摩洛哥,心理健康问题主要影响青少年和青壮年,对他们日常生活中的功能性参与有明显影响。职业治疗作为一种整体的、以人为中心的实践,可能是一种理想的心理健康策略,通过职业促进健康和福祉,从而使个人能够参加定期的日常活动。目的从跨文化的角度了解精神卫生专业人员对摩洛哥sal(拉巴特)Errazi精神卫生医院职业实践的作用和重要性的看法。方法本研究采用定性研究设计。数据收集包括与12名精神卫生保健专业人员(非职业治疗师)的半结构化访谈。这些结果被用来了解他们对人类职业在摩洛哥精神卫生服务中的主要作用的看法,并在职业治疗方面纳入跨文化观点。数据分析分三个阶段进行,采用扎根理论方法。结果本研究得出了"摩洛哥心理健康的职业维度"和"涉及心理健康的传统观点与西方观点之间的相互作用"两个类别。这两个类别都包括五个子类别。结论:本研究确定了摩洛哥精神卫生保健中基于职业的服务如何不仅需要考虑精神卫生的文化视角和根植于职业的社会文化意义,而且还需要考虑纳入以社区为中心的方法的相关性。此外,它还讨论了摩洛哥的职业治疗教育如何必须纳入治疗理论和实践的跨文化视角。

期刊介绍: Cognition, Technology & Work focuses on the practical issues of human interaction with technology within the context of work and, in particular, how human cognition affects, and is affected by, work and working conditions. The aim is to publish research that normally resides on the borderline between people, technology, and organisations. Including how people use information technology, how experience and expertise develop through work, and how incidents and accidents are due to the interaction between individual, technical and organisational factors. The target is thus the study of people at work from a cognitive systems engineering and socio-technical systems perspective. The most relevant working contexts of interest to CTW are those where the impact of modern technologies on people at work is particularly important for the users involved as well as for the effects on the environment and plants. Modern society has come to depend on the safe and efficient functioning of a multitude of technological systems as diverse as industrial production, transportation, communication, supply of energy, information and materials, health and finance.
