The COVID-19 pandemic has had a disproportionate impact on older adults with mental illness, and Geriatric Mental Health Care was conceived in response. This book, with its detailed descriptions of clinical and social innovations to mitigate the impact of the pandemic on a vulnerable population, represents an ongoing effort to address rapidly evolving health care needs. Because the authors worked on this book during the pandemic, the practices they describe have been tested and refined in the real world. Introductory vignettes that serve to illustrate each chapter's salient points, key takeaways that allow for quick reference, and multiple-choice questions that help reinforce learning are the hallmarks of Geriatric Mental Health Care. In addition to offering a historical perspective on the mental health effects of pandemics, the chapter authors delve into modern-day concerns that include inpatient geriatric psychiatry during a pandemic, telehealth models of care, health care staff concerns, and social determinants of health. The authors also explore the pandemic's effects on research and the economy, analyzing the impact of nonclinical factors on the broader clinical care effort. Although important strides have been made in the delivery of mental health care to older adult patients, very real challenges remain more than a year and a half after the pandemic's emergence. Even as the world continues to grapple with the effects of the current pandemic, mental health professionals must prepare themselves to provide care under the trying conditions of what will likely be other pandemics in the future. These considerations make Geriatric Mental Health Care, and its purpose of sharing promising practices that other clinicians and systems can consider emulating, so urgent and necessary.

Santé mentale ; Santé publique

Environ 1 Français sur 5 est touché chaque année par un trouble psychique. La crise sanitaire a mis en lumière l'évident enjeu que représente leur prise en charge, à l'heure où l'OMS estime que la santé mentale sera le prochain défi sanitaire du siècle. Un défi qui concerne plus que jamais la France : ses niveaux de suicide sont plus élevés que d'autres pays européens et notre consommation de médicaments psychotropes est parmi les plus fortes au monde.Si la multiplication des témoignages d'anonymes ou de personnalités publiques faisant récit de leurs difficultés a permis d'inviter le sujet dans la sphère médiatique, qu'en est-il de la réalité de l'accès aux soins ? Comment définir les principaux troubles psychiques pour assurer leur identification à tous les âges ? Peut-on en prévenir la survenue ? Quel est le rôle de la psychiatrie dans un paysage qui tend à s'ouvrir aux neurosciences et aux sciences sociales et humaines ?Autant de questions que Maria Melchior explore dans cet ouvrage complet qui envisage l'homme, avec ses forces et ses fragilités, dans l'incertitude de notre monde. Dans une société qui célèbre l'accomplissement à tout prix et encourage la réussite individuelle, afficher sa vulnérabilité serait-il une façon de faire un pas de côté ?

A bold, expert, and actionable map for the re-invention of America's broken mental health care system As director of the National Institute of Mental Health, Dr. Thomas Insel was giving a presentation when the father of a boy with schizophrenia yelled from the back of the room, "Our house is on fire and you're telling me about the chemistry of the paint! What are you doing to put out the fire?" Dr. Insel knew in his heart that the answer was not nearly enough. The gargantuan American mental health industry was not healing millions who were desperately in need. He left his position atop the mental health research world to investigate all that was broken-and what a better path to mental health might look like. In the United States, we have treatments that work, but our system fails at every stage to deliver care well. Even before COVID, mental illness was claiming a life every eleven minutes by suicide. Quality of care varies widely, and much of the field lacks accountability. We focus on drug therapies for symptom reduction rather than on plans for long-term recovery. Care is often unaffordable and unavailable, particularly for those who need it most and are homeless or incarcerated. Where was the justice for the millions of Americans suffering from mental illness? Who was helping their families? But Dr. Insel also found that we do have approaches that work, both in the U.S. and globally. Mental illnesses are medical problems, but he discovers that the cures for the crisis are not just medical, but social. This path to healing, built upon what he calls the three Ps (people, place, and purpose), is more straightforward than we might imagine. Dr. Insel offers a comprehensive plan for our failing system and for families trying to discern the way forward. The fruit of a lifetime of expertise and a global quest for answers, Healing is a hopeful, actionable account and achievable vision for us all in this time of mental health crisis.

Santé mentale ; Malades mentaux - Réadaptation ; Handicapés mentaux - Réadaptation

La bonne santé mentale est constitutée de trop nombreux critères pour pouvoir être réduite à une simple éradication des troubles les plus envahissants. Le terme de "rétablissement" après avoir été imposé par les usagers qui s'opposaient à une certaine conception de la psychiatrie qu'il récusaient, semble aujourd'hui pouvoir fédérer usagers et praticiens de toutes obédiences autour de projets communs portés par une volonté partagée d'enrichissement, voire de renouvellement des pratiques et des liens unissant les uns et les autres.

Les professionnels du champ médico-social se heurtent à un nouveau problème mal identifié, celui de la souffrance, du « mal-être » d'un nombre de personnes dans des situations de précarité et d'exclusion sociale. S'agit-il d'un problème nouveau, nécessitant de nouvelles formes d'intervention? Le professeur Lazarus, au cours de cet entretien, analyse cette situation et nous donne des éléments de réponse.

Dépression ; Santé mentale

Le professeur Widlocher reprend les arguments développés dans la nouvelle édition de son livre «Les logiques de la dépression». Il apporte des points de repère essentiels pour mieux comprendre le syndrome dépressif. Il montre qu'une approche globale de la dépression permet de dépasser le clivage entre une vision neurobiologique trop exclusive.

Cette perspective permet de réactualiser nos connaissances sur la clinique, la psychopathologie et le traitement de cette affection dont l'importance en termes de santé publique est capitale.
