Abstract

TIBIRICA, Vanessa Ayres; LUCHINI, Eduarda Pampolin Miessi  and  ALMEIDA, Camila Souza de. Drug users' perspective on their treatment and the psychosocial care network. SMAD, Rev. Eletrônica Saúde Mental Álcool Drog. (Ed. port.) [online]. 2019, vol.15, n.4, pp.1-9. ISSN 1806-6976.  https://doi.org/10.11606/issn.1806-6976.smad.2019.150890.

OBJECTIVE: to analyze the perception of the user of alcohol and other drugs on their treatment in a Psychosocial Care Center for alcohol and other drugs and their insertion in the psychosocial care network. METHOD: this is an exploratory qualitative research, in which focal groups were used as a way of collecting data. The study was conducted in the city of Divinópolis, Minas Gerais, from August to November 2017. RESULTS: in all, five focus groups addressed issues such as treatment, care network and relationship with the city's health system. CONCLUSION: the psychosocial care network is very fragmented and fragile, which makes it difficult for the users of alcohol and other drugs to be treated and overload the specialized mental health services.
