A formação em psicologia e a atuação no campo das políticas públicas de saúde mental na região do ABCDMRR
Resumo:
Introduction: Research has shown that the presence of critical debates on Public Mental Health Policies is scarce during the Psychology training process, as the trend is the establishment of a traditional approach that reduces the subject in the face of naturalized and individualizing practices. The aim of this article was to investigate the absence of critical debates on this topic, with regard to the training and performance of psychologists in this field. Material and methods: The research was exploratory in nature with qualitative analysis of the data. Two professionals with a background in Psychology participated in the research, who work or have worked in the CAPS (Psychosocial Care Centers) in the ABCDMRR region. Results and discussion: The participants pointed out weaknesses regarding the content and discussions about Public Mental Health Policies during their training in Psychology and reported difficulties regarding the performance models established in the substitute services (CAPS). Final considerations: It was found that much still needs to be advanced, both in research and in the knowledge produced and obtained in the training universities, as well as in the role models of psychologists who deal with the daily work in the CAPS.
Keywords: professional practice in psychology, psychosocial care center (CAPS), psychology training, public policy, mental health.

Políticas públicas para a saúde do idoso – uma análise acerca das atuais políticas públicas voltadas para o idoso
Resumo:
This article aims to discuss about public policies that are aimed at the elderly in Brazil. Thus, this discussion is necessary because many elderly people still feel discriminated against in our country, because often the treatment given to them in society does not correspond with their reality. Many elderly people can still contribute a lot to the growth of our society and can also engage in the labor market, with the exception of those who have some pathology. Old age is not a disease, but a natural process of the human being that does not prevent them from thinking and acting in society. Our discussion is based on the Statute of the Elderly and on authors such as Soares (2012), Boneti (1997), among others who are dedicated to the study of the theme.
Keywords: elderly, elderly health, public policies, autonomy.

A pandemia de COVID-19 e os impactos na saúde pública do estado do Rio de Janeiro
Resumo:
Introduction: The new SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, which causes COVID-19 disease, has a variable clinical spectrum, which can cause asymptomatic and oligosymptomatic infections, but which may evolve requiring hospital care and even ventilatory support. Thus, the study aims to describe by means of indicators the impact of the pandemic on the availability of hospital beds in the municipalities of the State of Rio de Janeiro. Material and methods: A cross-sectional spatial ecological study was carried out, with a quantitative approach. The data were based on epidemiological bulletins for monitoring cases of COVID-19 in the municipalities of the State of Rio de Janeiro, for the period from March 1 to June 13, 2020, where 9 health regions covering 92 municipalities were analyzed of State. Results and discussion: It was observed that the region with the highest incidence, equivalent to 3,47/100.000 population, corresponds to the Baixada Litorânea region, however considering the absolute population the largest number of cases occurred in Metropolitan I, with 197,445, being 144,199 in the municipality of Rio de Janeiro. In addition to the descriptive analysis, Pearson's correlation was calculated and the result was 0.98, at the 5% level, which confirms that the correlation value is significant. Final considerations: It is evident that the State should intensify educational policies that seek to raise the population's awareness of how to spread the virus and expand strategies for rapid virus identification, isolation and early treatment, due to the lack of availability hospitalization beds to attend all cases of COVID that evolve with complications.
Keywords: COVID-19, beds, public policies, health.
