Professional programme for community care (mental health)

Objective

OBJECTIVES
The closure of long-term psychiatric hospitals and the development of "community care" operations often employing people with few qualifications has given rise to a demand which this project aims to satisfy. It is important for people working in the various community care services to have a basic training in the area of mental health. The project therefore proposes to define a typical profile for mental health specialists in terms of the training and qualifications required to work in this type of profession. It will result in the creation of a training programme using tools appropriate for people starting out with few qualifications, such as open and distance training tools.

ACTIVITIES
Experts will develop, test and evaluate innovations in training and employment. They will produce a professional profile of people working in community care services and those dealing with people who have recently re-entered society and who are prone to experiencing minor disabilities. Flexible training tools suitable for different levels of training will be produced. These will then be validated and disseminated over as wide an area as possible

PRODUCTS
The project will result in the creation of a continuing vocational training programme validated at European level for people working in community care services and dealing with people with minor disabilities. It will also create a typical professional profile for these new professionals.
