Building Capacity

拉丁美洲中心设想，严重精神障碍患者的社区卫生保健 (CHC-SMD) 是一个初级保健和二级精神卫生服务的综合系统，该系统尽可能靠近使用这些服务的社区，所有严重精神障碍患者及其家人都可以获得服务，促进社区的全面融合，并让受影响的个人、他们的家庭和社区参与制定向他们提供的卫生服务。因此，能力建设部分的目标是确保 HLA 有能力启动战略举措，从而在短期内（5 年拨款期）为 CHC-SMD 取得重大进展，其次是培养能够维持持续进展的人力资源。 HLA 工作的核心理念是在小学内部和小学之间适当使用任务转移干预措施 护理和二级心理健康服务将促进 CHC-SMD 的进展。因此，我们特别给出 关注能力建设部分中此类干预措施的能力建设。虽然我们的首要任务是培训心理健康专业人员，但我们也计划让医生、护士、社会工作者、社区心理健康工作者和同伴支持工作者参与并提供实习经验，他们在所有这些阶段都发挥着关键作用。具有此范围的能力建设计划将最好地服务于我们的目的，是可行的，将有助于防止初级和二级护理之间的培训和服务分散； wili 对整个 HLA 区域有很大影响；并将在资助的 5 年期限之后继续产生影响。 为了实现 HLA 的目标，能力建设部分的目标是： (a) 建立一个自我维持的 下一个时代的青年领袖区域网络； (b) 增强 HLA 站点设计、实施、 评估每个站点内和跨站点的任务转移方法； (c) 向普通医生、护士、社会工作者、社区心理卫生工作者和同伴支持工作者提供任务转移的实习经验； (d) 使用创新方法让偏远服务不足地区的精神卫生专业人员参与我们的能力建设计划。

The Hub for Latin America envisions Community Health Care for individuals with Severe Mental Disorders (CHC-SMD) as an integrated system of primary care and secondary mental health services that are delivered as close as possible to the communities that use them, that are accessible to all people with severe mental disorders and their families, that promote full community integration, and that engage the affected individuals, their families, and their communities in shaping the health services offered to them. Therefore the goals of the Capacity Building Component are to ensure that the HLA has the capacity for launching strategic initiatives that will generate significant progress toward CHC-SMD in the short term (5 year grant period), and second, to build human resources that will sustain ongoing progress. Central to the HLA woric is the notion that the appropriate use of task shifting interventions within and across primary care and secondary mental health services will catalyze progress toward CHC-SMD. Therefore, we give particular attention to building capacity for such interventions in the Capacity Building Component. Although our foremost priority is to train mental health professionals, we also plan to engage and offer practicum experiences to doctors, nurses, social workers, community mental health workers, and peer support workers, who have a key role to play in all these stages. A capacity building program with this scope will best serve our purposes, is feasible, will help prevent fragmentation of training and services between primary and secondary care; wili have a large impact across the HLA region; and will continue to have an impact well beyond the 5 year period of the grant. To achieve the goals of the HLA, the aims of the Capacity Building Component are; (a) to build a self-sustaining regional network of young leaders for the next era; (b) to enhance the capacity of the HLA sites to devise, implement, and evaluate task shifting approaches both within each site and across the sites; (c) to offer a practicum experience in task shifting to general doctors, nurses, social workers, community mental health workers, and peer support workers; and (d) to use innovative approaches for mental health professionals in remote underserved areas to access our capacity building program.
