安全感和从心理健康问题中恢复似乎是相互关联的概念,但迄今为止,还没有对探索妇女获得心理健康方案的安全和恢复之间联系的研究进行审查。本次审查的目的是确定目前的知识和知识差距的经验,妇女和他们的人身安全时,访问混合性别和妇女的心理健康programmes.MethodsA范围审查方法。检索了4个电子数据库(Medline、PsycINFO、AMED和CINAHL),涵盖时间范围为2000年1月至2019年12月,以识别相关同行评审文章,并筛选纳入。包括的关键检索词(“女性”或“女性”或“性别”)(“康复”和“心理健康方案”)或(“社区精神卫生”或“社区精神卫生中心/或社区精神卫生中心”)和“安全性”。(5份来自英国,3份来自澳大利亚,2份来自美国)和2份来自欧洲国家,表明与心理健康问题及其在使用心理健康服务时的人身安全直接相关的文献有限。安全的攻击和骚扰,并找到安全和支持性的连接通常被报道为至关重要的过程中恢复的妇女与心理健康问题在这些studies.ConclusionsBased上确定的知识差距,本文提出了更多的研究,以告知性别特异性的服务providence.What是已知的主题?服务指南确定了在心理健康服务中对性别敏感的做法的必要性,但妇女继续报告在急性和亚急性心理健康计划中遭受性骚扰或其他形式骚扰的经历。这项研究确定了目前的知识,关于妇女的经验时,访问心理健康计划。特别是,在服务中感到安全是至关重要的恢复过程中的妇女与心理健康问题。什么是从业人员的影响?这项研究有助于向在这些心理健康方案中工作的卫生专业人员提供知识,并强调需要满足妇女在获得服务时感到安全的需求。
ObjectiveA sense of safety and recovery from mental health issues seem to be interrelated concepts but, to date, there has been no review of studies exploring the links between safety and recovery for women accessing mental health programs. This review aimed to identify current knowledge and knowledge gaps regarding the experiences of women and their personal safety when accessing mixed-gender and women's mental health programs.MethodsA scoping review methodology was used. Four electronic databases (Medline, PsycINFO, AMED, and CINAHL) were searched, covering the period from January 2000 to December 2019, to identify relevant peer-reviewed articles, which were screened for inclusion. Key search terms included ('women' or 'female' or 'gender') and ('recovery' and 'mental health programs') or ('community mental health' or 'community mental health centres/or community mental health centre') and 'safety'.ResultsTwelve studies were identified, 10 of which were from English-speaking countries (five from the UK, three from Australia, two from the US) and two from European countries, indicating there is limited literature directly relevant to women with mental health issues and their personal safety while using mental health services. Safety from assault and harassment and finding safe and supportive connections were commonly reported as crucial to the process of recovery for the women with mental health issues across these studies.ConclusionsBased on the identified knowledge gaps, this paper advances the argument for more research to inform gender-specific service provision.What is known about the topic?Service guidelines identify the need for gender-sensitive practices in mental health services, yet women continue to report experiences of sexual or other forms of harassment while in acute and subacute mental health programs.What does this paper add?This study identified the current knowledge regarding the experiences of women when accessing mental health programs. In particular, a sense of feeling safe in services was crucial to the process of recovery for women with mental health issues.What are the implications for practitioners?This study contributes to the body of knowledge informing health professionals who work within these mental health programs and highlights the need to meet women's needs to feel safe when accessing services.
