Objectives Our aim in this work is to determine the family experience during the hospitalization of their sibling in the emergency room of the psychiatric university hospital Ar-Razi in Salé. Methods Our work was carried out with families of patients admitted to the emergency department of the psychiatric university hospital Ar-Razi in Salé. The data collection was carried out with the help of a questionnaire including several items. Results Sixty-five family members were included in this study. Their relatives hospitalized in the psychiatric emergency department were male in 70% of cases with an average age of 32.4 years. - In 76% of the cases, the family member interviewed was the one who requested hospitalization; - 55% of those interviewed were parents. The analysis of relatives’ feelings during the hospitalization showed: - Feelings of guilt were related to feelings of fear of exclusion and worries. - Feelings of fear and exclusion were mostly expressed by mothers of patients hospitalized for the first time At the end of the hospitalisation, 90% expressed relief, and 85% of family members were satisfied with their relative’s stay in the psychiatric emergency department. Conclusions Recognizing families as units of care and understanding their situation and experiences facilitates the post-hospitalization care process. A well-informed family about mental illness and the types of therapeutic treatments available helps optimize the treatment. Disclosure of Interest None Declared |
