abstract: 'Background:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
South Africa is a low and middle income country facing many challenges
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in public mental health care and implementation of recovery.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Aims:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
To contribute to what barriers and facilitators to recovery might be for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
service users in South Africa, from the perspective of service users,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
carers and service providers from three psychiatric hospitals in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Western Cape province.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Method:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Interviews and focus groups were conducted with service users, carers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and service providers. Interviews and focus groups were transcribed and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysed using atlas.ti software and reflexive thematic analysis, from
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the bottom up.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Results:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The barriers, environment, family, public mental health services, stigma
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and service users'' attitude or behaviour generated, were found to be the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
most salient. The facilitators to recovery generated were support,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family or friends, service providers, structure and empowerment. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
need for support was identified as an underlying component to all these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
themes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Conclusion:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Barriers and facilitators to recovery seemed to have both intrapersonal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and external sources that intersect at times. Recovery needs to be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
supported at an individual level, especially through an under-utilised
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
resource such as peer support work, but in conjunction with the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
development of recovery-enabling environments in services and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
communities in South Africa.'
