Desde o início do processo de desinstitucionalização desinstitucionalização
que este se tem vindo a deparar com dificuldades.
Passando pelos poucos recursos ao dispor dos serviços
de saúde mental, à tendência para trabalhar com os
elementos que apresentam maiores probabilidades de
sucesso, à não articulação entre os serviços hospitalares
e os centros comunitários de saúde mental, até à
falta de investimentos em alternativas habitacionais de
carácter permanente. Estas têm sido algumas das situações
a que os consumidores de serviços de saúde mental
se têm sujeitado.
Actualmente, assistimos à emergência de um paradigma
que assenta na crença de que se deverá prestar
apoio a estes consumidores numa casa tipicamente
normal, com uma vivência na comunidade, em que o
apoio é disponibilizado consoante as necessidades de
cada indivíduo sem que exista uma limitação temporal
à sua prestação. Torna-se assim necessário criar novos
papéis para os técnicos, no sentido de que estes ajudem
os consumidores a escolher, a obter, e a manter
uma habitação. É pois urgente o desenvolvimento de
um conjunto diversificado de alternativas habitacionais
que se baseiem nos recursos e capacidades das comunidades
locais, no sentido de garantir que o processo
de desinstitucionalização se conclua com sucesso.
Palavras-chave: desinstitucionalização, habitação

ABSTRACT: Since its beginning the deinstitutiondeinstitutionalization process has faced some difficulties, such as the mental health services lack of resources, the trend to work with the individual who presents higher probability of success, the lack of articulation between hospital services and community mental health centers, and the lack of investments on accommodations for long periods of time. These are some of the situations that consumers of mental health services have endured. Nowadays we witness the emerging of a paradigm which lies on the idea that these consumers need to be supported at a ordinary house, living in community, where the support is provided according to each person’s needs, and without a time limit. This paradigm also creates a need for the professionals to find new roles so that they will be able to help the consumers to choose, get, and keep a home. To ensure the success of deinstitutionalization it is vital that the establishment of different alternatives of accommodation be based on communities’ resources and capabilities.
