摘要

在过去的60年里,印度农村人口从近82%下降到约65%。印度全国心理健康调查(2015-2016年)报告称,与城市相比,农村地区的精神障碍患病率较低。该国的精神卫生服务向城市地区倾斜,更多的家庭在为患有精神疾病的成员接受治疗时被推到贫困线以下。印度在过去二十年中扩大了其地区精神卫生方案,现在该方案几乎覆盖了全国所有地区。尽管如此,仍有大量精神障碍患者(70-90%)没有得到适当的治疗。本文讨论了城乡在精神卫生服务方面的差距,考察了问题和需求,以及印度政府在这方面采取的举措。

Mental health services in rural India: a big challenge still to be met.

There has been a decline in the rural population of India from nearly 82% to about 65% over the past six decades. The National Mental Health Survey of India (2015-2016) reported a lower prevalence of mental disorders in rural areas compared with urban ones. Mental health services in the country are skewed towards the urban areas, and more families are pushed below the poverty line while getting treatment for a member with mental illness. India has expanded its District Mental Health Programme over the past two decades, and it now covers nearly all the districts in the country. Despite that, significant numbers of people with mental disorders, ranging from 70-90%, do not receive adequate treatment. This paper discusses the rural-urban divide in the mental health services, examining the problem and need, and the initiatives taken by the government of India in this direction.
