Acompanhamento da transição dos pacientes do CAPS infantil para o CAPS adultos em Santa Cruz do Sul.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to follow the transition of patients from the childhood servisse to the adult servisse in Mental Care in the city of Santa Cruz do Sul, RS. When users of the Psychosocial Care Center - CAPS - infants reach the age of 18, they must necessarily be transferred to another referral center, namely the adult CAPS. Thus, during March 2015 to December 2016 we propose to analyze how this process occurred. Therefore, the purpose of the study was to understand how to monitor the transition of 18-year-old patients to adult CAPS, because the systematization of this follow-up is not an easy task for both referral services, however, it should not be overlooked. In this sense, we asked: How has it been possible to guarantee the effectiveness of the transition process from childhood CAPS to adult CAPS, from the intervention of the Social Work trainee from December 2015 to July 2016? In order to respond to the questioning put forward, three hypotheses were formulated that addressed the effectiveness of the transition process from the analysis of the elaboration of an action plan to follow the transition from the user of the child CAPS to the adult CAPS, multidisciplinary meetings for Presentation, discussion and referrals, and, finally, domiciliary visits in order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed action plan and the printing of the users and family members of the transition process and the new reference service. The work was based on the hypothetical-deductive approach method and the documental research procedure method was used. Allied to these, the method of bibliographic research was also used, as well as through a qualitative research, the work was structured for its purpose, to verify the effectiveness under question. The paper concludes that, although the transition process, from the intervention project, has taken place in a more organic way thanks to the systematization and monitoring of transitions through Social Work, it still encounters numerous challenges for its These mishaps have made it possible to envisage that the work of the Social Service can guarantee, even in relative terms, a more effective monitoring of the transition from child CAPS to adult CAPS.
