Abstract

Background: This study aimed to measure differences among informal caregivers, users, and mental healthcare workers (MHW) regarding job/organizational satisfaction and perceptions of respect for rights in the mental health services of one region of Italy.

Methods: A sample of 100 caregivers, 240 MHW, and 200 users completed the "Well-Being at Work and Respect for Human Rights Questionnaire" (WWRR) in community mental health centers in Sardinia.

Results: Caregivers reported higher satisfaction toward MHW on perceiving respect for human rights among users (5.2 ± 1.0 vs 5.1 ± 1.1, p < 0.0001) and health professionals (5.3 ± 0.8 vs 4.5 ± 1.3, p < 0.0001) and organization well-being (5.1 ± 1.2 vs 3.9 ± 1.3, p < 0.0001); toward users about respect of rights of MHW (5.3 ± 0.8 vs 4.9 ± 1.2, p < 0.0001) and both toward users and MHW on dissatisfaction on resources (p < 0.0001). Caregivers strongly highlighted insufficient resources for services.

Conclusion: Despite caregiver satisfaction, resource deficiencies signal a critical juncture in Italian mental health care. Continued cuts in healthcare spending, especially in mental health, raise concerns for future outcomes.

非正规护理人员与用户和医务工作者在精神健康护理服务的福祉和尊重人权方面的比较。

背景：本研究旨在测量意大利一个地区的非正规护理人员、使用者和心理保健工作者（MHW）在工作/组织满意度和对心理健康服务中尊重人权的看法方面的差异：方法：在撒丁岛的社区精神卫生中心，抽样调查了 100 名护理人员、240 名精神卫生工作者和 200 名使用者，他们填写了 "工作幸福感和尊重人权问卷"（WWRR）：结果：护理人员对精神卫生工作者的满意度较高，认为他们尊重使用者的人权（5.2 ± 1.0 vs 5.1 ± 1.1，p < 0.0001）和卫生专业人员的人权（5.3 ± 0.8 vs 4.5 ± 1.3，p < 0.0001），以及组织的幸福感（5.3 ± 0.8 vs 4.5 ± 1.3，p < 0.0001）。0001）和组织福利（5.1 ± 1.2 vs 3.9 ± 1.3，p < 0.0001）；对用户尊重产妇权利（5.3 ± 0.8 vs 4.9 ± 1.2，p < 0.0001），以及对用户和产妇对资源不满意（p < 0.0001）。护理人员强烈强调服务资源不足：尽管护理人员感到满意，但资源不足预示着意大利心理健康护理正处于关键时刻。医疗保健支出的持续削减，尤其是在心理健康方面，引发了人们对未来结果的担忧。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Public Health Research (JPHR) is an online Open Access, peer-reviewed journal in the field of public health science. The aim of the journal is to stimulate debate and dissemination of knowledge in the public health field in order to improve efficacy, effectiveness and efficiency of public health interventions to improve health outcomes of populations. This aim can only be achieved by adopting a global and multidisciplinary approach. The Journal of Public Health Research publishes contributions from both the “traditional'' disciplines of public health, including hygiene, epidemiology, health education, environmental health, occupational health, health policy, hospital management, health economics, law and ethics as well as from the area of new health care fields including social science, communication science, eHealth and mHealth philosophy, health technology assessment, genetics research implications, population-mental health, gender and disparity issues, global and migration-related themes. In support of this approach, JPHR strongly encourages the use of real multidisciplinary approaches and analyses in the manuscripts submitted to the journal. In addition to Original research, Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, Meta-synthesis and Perspectives and Debate articles, JPHR publishes newsworthy Brief Reports, Letters and Study Protocols related to public health and public health management activities.
