Abstract

Thinking about the Psychiatric Reform and the proposal of priority care in an extra-hospital service, the study aims to analyze the profile of psychiatric patients who seek care in an Urgent and Emergency unit of a General Hospital. The mixed method was used, with application of a questionnaire, semi-structured interview and participant observation in the hospital unit where the data were collected. This took place from April to August 2018, using the semi-structured interview and electronic medical records to construct the data. The perception of patients in relation to hospital care and the most used medications during this period was observed. It was concluded that psychology during hospitalization works with patients and family members on the follow-up in the network after discharge. It was also noticed the need to train health professionals to serve this target audience, in addition to changes in the physical space. ABSTRACT
