Abstract

Social support for people with mental disorders in poor areas: a case study in GunungkidulPurposeThe purpose of this study was to describe the role of mental health cadres in the effort of community based mental health service at Wonosari II Health Center Gunungkidul.MethodsQualitative research was done by case study approach. The cadres were chosen purposively with the criteria of: having attended training or socialization of mental health, having at least 2 years work experience related to community mental health service, and still active. Data collection was done through in-depth interviews and document utilization.ResultsCadres play an important role in providing social support. First, the cadre can show empathy to the family of people with mental disorders by building close relationships and facilitating the social acceptance of the community. Secondly, the cadres provide socialization related to mental disorders and mental health services. Third, approaches through home visits, referral assistance to health services, and health insurance and social assistance suggest that cadres facilitate access to care for people with mental disorders.ConclusionThere was a high social awareness of cadres to families with mental disorders in poor neighborhoods. We found that poverty does not limit people to share with others, and social support helps prevent mental illness from getting worse.
