MAGNUS, Cláudia de Negreiros  y  MERLO, Álvaro Roberto Crespo. The construction of health, between serving and servitude: relations between servers in a public psychiatric hospital. Cad. psicol. soc. trab. [online]. 2012, vol.15, n.2, pp.175-188. ISSN 1516-3717.

This article presents part of the dissertation research with the objective of understanding the dynamics of the work of mental health professionals in a public psychiatric hospital in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The study shows how damaging the work is managed in this institution and its implications in relation to subjectivity, reflecting intensely in working relationships between the servers. The methodological approach used was the psychodynamics of work. The evidence was obtained through interviews with servers from two units for acute patients (crack addicts). They indicate the quality of relationships between colleagues as the main drawback at work. In conclusion, the importance of opportunities for discussion within the institution and of recognizing subjective mobilization is emphasized, which would allow the network of servers to challenge their organization, thus acting against servitude and in favor of the construction of health.
