The focus of this text is to share the way we think and organize information in order to build our perspective of Mental Health from Occupational Therapy on the basis of our academic instruction. We use the word "building" because we understand this as a dynamic, flexible, and ever changing process in which the Occupational Therapist implement diverse verbal and material resources according to the moment in the Health-Disease process. We hope that this revision will offer a specific view of the meaning of "doing" from the Occupational Therapy perspective; process that implies different stages in a permanent reflection between theory and praxis. The main purpose is that persons, groups or communities reach the best opportunities of autonomy and quality of life. We will cover notions about risk and psychosocial dysfunction in articulation with the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) followed by the paradigm that have transformed our clinical practice in every level in which Occupational Therapy intervenes. We do not pretend to arrive to conclusions but to question certain ideas that we have inherited from other health-disciplines like: chronic/acute; adapted/mis-adapted; disqualified/ rehabilitated, and that have influenced our profession. |
