Purpose: The purpose of the present work is to investigate and highlight the rights of the mentally ill and to promote and promote the health of these patients. Methodology: The study material consisted of articles on the topic found in Greek and international databases such as: Google Scholar, Mednet, Pubmed, Medline and the Hellenic Academic Libraries Association (HEAL-Link), using keywords: mental illness, patient rights, health professionals. Results: The rights of mental patients and their exercise in a meaningful and effective manner is a dynamic process that encompasses the corresponding rights and obligations of mental health professionals. An important legal effort to protect the rights of the mentally ill is Resolution 46/119 of the United Nations General Assembly on the Protection of Persons with Mental Illness and Improving Mental Health Care, adopted on 17 December 1991. Conclusions: The exercise of the rights of the mentally ill requires their encouragement from mental health professionals, who are essentially obliged to refrain from restrictive practices. |
