[Mental care delivered in psychosocial care centers (CAPS) from the viewpoint of the professionals].
This article deals with a subproject of the Project for Evaluation of the CAPS psychosocial care centers (CAPS) in the southern region of Brazil, whose purpose was to learn how the professionals of a substitute service feel about of the mental care delivered there. The study was conducted in a CAPS II using a qualitative approach. Data were collected in interviews. The data were classified into three thematic groups and analyzed according to the available literature. In this article we will approach the understanding of the professionals about the care services offered in the CAPS. The results show that for these professionals care involves more than the biological aspects, including the family and society. We perceive that the team is extending its perception of mental health, when considering psychosocial rehabilitation the most important aspect.
