Abstract

Background: The rights of mental health service users are a subject of profound debate. In this article, we aim to examine mental health professionals' perspectives, opinions, and attitudes on the state of service users' rights.

Methods: We conducted a thematic analysis of eleven focus groups involving mental health professionals.

Results: Through this process, we identified two main meta-themes that shed light on the challenges faced by mental health service users: 'Transforming the therapeutic relationship' and 'Societal determinants of service users' rights'. Within the former meta-theme, we identified the following themes: 'Diversifying mental health knowledge', 'Risk-protection tensions', and 'Being (ir)responsible'. Within the latter meta-theme we identified 'Determinants inside the clinics' and 'Determinants outside the clinics.'

Conclusions: Reflecting on these themes could potentially encourage new strategies to support professionals in overcoming the subjective barriers that prevent their adherence to rights-based mental health care models.

一项定性研究，探讨心理健康专业人员对服务使用者权利状况的观点、看法和态度。

背景：心理健康服务使用者的权利是一个备受争议的话题。本文旨在研究精神卫生专业人员对服务使用者权利状况的观点、看法和态度：方法：我们对涉及精神卫生专业人员的 11 个焦点小组进行了专题分析：通过这一过程，我们发现了两个主要的元主题，它们揭示了心理健康服务使用者所面临的挑战："治疗关系的转变 "和 "服务使用者权利的社会决定因素"。在前一个元主题中，我们确定了以下主题："心理健康知识多样化"、"风险-保护紧张关系 "和"（不）负责任"。在后一个元主题中，我们确定了 "诊所内的决定因素 "和 "诊所外的决定因素"：对这些主题的反思有可能鼓励采取新的策略，支持专业人员克服阻碍他们坚持以权利为本的精神健康护理模式的主观障碍。
