Dependência química

O primeiro passo da implantação do projeto envolve um ciclo de palestras com os formadores de opinião da escola. Assim, diretores e coordenadores irão discutir e desenvolver com o neurocientista as bases nas quais o trabalho irá ocorrer em toda a escola. Esta etapa objetiva que o conhecimento sobre o funcionamento neural torne-se um saber que venha complementar as teorias pedagógicas que norteiam o trabalho da escola e que seja formado o consenso sobre como, quando e com quais instrumentos este conhecimento será incorporado às práticas educacionais para que os objetivos finais, de ampliar a consciência, o auto-conhecimento e os processos de vivência coletiva, respeito a si mesmo e ao outro, sejam atingidos. Acreditamos que, ao aprofundar o conhecimento a respeito do próprio corpo, especialmente sobre a estrutura e o funcionamento do cérebro, educadores, jovens e crianças possam ampliar as possibilidades de relação com a própria vida e com a sociedade. A reflexão, quando associada a informações de qualidade, pode resultar em transformações importantes, contributivas para os momentos de escolha, o que certamente transcende a dimensão individual.

We look at psychological wellbeing from a holistic perspective. We believe that wellbeing lies not merely in the eradication of mental disorders but towards the conscious achievement of positive feelings and happiness. Custodial homes’ inmates’ mental health warrants unique inputs with respect to medical, psychological and social aspects.

Through Mental Health Unit, currently at Nirmal Chhaya & Boys’ Home (Lajpat Nagar); we provide counselling survives, group work, psychiatric care, family counselling to them and the effort is made towards empowerment of these children/women with mental health concern by holistic healing.

On a monthly basis we undertake approx 180 counselling sessions, 110 family counselling sessions, 200 cases of Psychiatry intervention etc. Through the family counselling process the restorations of 179 children/women has become possible within one year. Currently we have 91 active clients. On a daily basis, the Mental Health Unit has a footfall of 40-50 clients.

We are also engaged with women/children who don’t need immediate psychological help rather we render them psychological wellbeing from a holistic perspective. We do organize “career mela”; for their social & economical rehabilitation. We organize various campaigns from time to time. We organized “Anti Bully Campaign” to overcome their bullying behavior thus leading to better adjustment. 10 girls also participated in Airtel Delhi Marathon (Udaan). We organized summer camp for the girls and engaged them in music, theatre and dance.

We have painstakingly built a portal which has thousands of pages of content,searchable databases with thousands of records and numerous interactive features and sections. Some eg: health directory, ask the doctor, support groups.The content is translated into regional languages. Think of it as a platform or clearing house. We also have on field activities
For Example:: aarogya.com gets over 3000 visitors every day. Our field activities have contributed to us being known by many. The addictionsupport.aarogya.com has worked with both Central and State. Govt. and NGOs in the field. The content is in English Marathi and Gujarati. Realizing that a major factor in sustaining recovery is gainful employment, we approached Ministry of Social welfare for supporting the Utthaan project. The project connects all the stakeholders and Industry to help train, counsel and get employment for those who have been treated for their addiction thus increasing their chances of staying sober and re-assimilating into society as productive members. The implementation of this project involves reaching out to de-addiction centres, addicts and their families, vocational training organisations and industry. Connecting the stakeholders, guiding them, holding sensitation programs, maintaining records and also creating an online platform. In order to ensure that the under served who do not understand English or have access to Internet are also reached, the brick and click model is essential.

Another example is our IT4Doctors project with Intel and Indian Medical Association - it4doctors.aarogya.com

“Customer Example #1: Amir is 17 years old and sexually active. Most of what he knows about sex has come from movies or television, and he knows very little about contraception or sexual diseases. He’s curious to learn more, but it’s a taboo subject in his community. Unfortunately, Amir lives in a nation with one of the highest HIV populations in the world. There hasn’t been an easy place to learn the facts until now…by texting 55456 on his Idea Cellular phone with key word “SEXM” he can start to receive text messages geared for teenage males. Topics covered include disease prevention, condom usage, and basics of reproductive health.”

“Customer Example #2: Maya would like to manage her weight and eat healthier - like many Indians her family has a strong history of Type 2 Diabetes. However, most of the information she sees is full of misleading lies & false claims, and she’d like to get real advice based on facts. There hasn’t been an easy place to learn more until now…by texting *646*941# on her Airtel phone she can subscribe to accurate daily alerts on nutrition and get relevant health information.”
Before we launched this service, the average Indian did not have an easy place to get basic health information. Doctors are often expensive, unapproachable, or not always available. According to the World Health Organization, India has 0.6 doctors and 0.08 nurses per thousand people, which is significantly below the world average of 1.2 doctors and 2.6 nurses per thousand. Cultural norms make some topics taboo for discussion - such as reproductive healthcare, womens health

Durante el proceso de admisión se realiza una valoración diagnóstica con una seriada de análisis clínicos que nos sitúan en el conocimiento de cómo esta el paciente físicamente, su historia familiar, de consumo, droga de mayor impacto, etc.
A partir de esto se determina un protocolo de abordaje integral, que incluye depuración física, alimentación saludable, utilización de cloruro de magnesio y plantas de la serranía, yerba del pollo y carqueja para depurar el sistema digestivo, hepático y renal (órganos muy deteriorados por el consumo); el proceso de psicoterapia individual, grupal y familiar, más el yoga, la meditación y las actividades diarias de alimentación e higiene.
Este cronograma va mejorando el estado del paciente, disminuyendo los síntomas de abstinencia y aumentando el contacto con su cuerpo como templo que debe ser restaurado,
Este proceso biológico va de la mano con una re significación de la percepción sobre sus posibilidades y capacidades, de sus creencias y su conexión con todo lo que lo rodea.
La adherencia al encuadre terapéutico y el retiro de la medicación psicofármaco lógica en los pacientes nos ha ido dando la seguridad de afianzar el trabajo y extenderlo a más personas.

A atuação da ACT é toda baseada na elaboração e desenvolvimento de pesquisas e atividades que nos auxiliem na conquista das políticas públicas já determinadas em tratado internacional de saúde do qual o Brasil é parte. Na posse de dados e embasamento que evidenciam a eficácia das estrategias a ACT faz advocacy em todos os niveis de governo (federal, estadual e municipal) e em todos os poderes. No poder legislativo monitoramos e apoiamos projetos de lei que estejam de acordo com as melhores práticas em controle do tabagismo, no poder executivo monitoramos e apoiamos a implementação de regulamentação eficaz, no poder judiciário monitoramos e defendemos as políticas que estão sendo contestadas pela indústria do tabaco. Todas as políticas públicas comprovadamente eficazes em controle do tabagismo estão sendo contestadas judicialmente pela indústria do tabaco e/ou seus aliados. Para o desenvolvimento desse trabalho articulamos uma rede de entidades da sociedade civil composta por entidades de várias áreas de atuação (gênero, meio ambiente, defesa do consumidor, agricultores familiares, saúde, direito, infância e juventude). Capacitamos e mobilizamos as entidades para apoiar as políticas. A lei antifumo em São Paulo é um exemplo bem sucedido de mobilização que melhorou a saúde e a qualidade de vida de milhões de pessoas. A ACT teve um papel importante desde a proposição da lei até sua implementação.

we can collect more than 1000 drugs (in any categories) from peoples in three month from July - October 2011

Reaching out to religious members and organizations for assistance and support. Engaging the help of social service organizations in that urban area. College students studying urban community engagement would be interested in assisting this project. Friends and neighbors in an urban area are always interested in places where they can go for help, information and possible financial assistance.
Workshops will be geared to the needs and wants of the community as we will survey the area population. We will provide a safe, friendly place to gather in a neighborhood where it might not be feasable all of the time.

Oral cancer screening and detection, referral of such patients to tertiary hospitals for further treatment, management and care, hopefully free of cost.
Tobacco awareness programmes. Oral Cancer awareness programmes.

First step is to meet IDUs on the streets or in needle exchange point, inform them about safe injecting and safer sex, give clean needles for them, take dirty ones from them, tell about HIV and hepatitis B and C prevention, overdoses prevention, about possibilities of treatment and rehabilitation. Those who are motivated to get treatment are sent to Methadone treatment. Most of them go to maintenance treatment, some of them to detox. For those who finished Methadone treatment, we provide rehabilitation in Day Center or in the farm. It is very important to inform society about our activities because many people ignore the needs to help IDU-s and are pessimistic about results. One of the important activities of our project is the fighting against stigma and discrimination of IDUS e.g. HIV positive.

The programme “With Migrants for Migrants – Intercultural Health” (MiMi) which was developed by the Ethno-Medical Center and was launched in 2003 aims to make the health (and education) system more accessible to immigrants, to increase their health literacy and to empower them through a participatory process. MiMi stands for “With migrants For Migrants”. It is a system for health education and health campaigns, conducted in more than 15 languages to date. The MiMi programme was created to train socially well integrated migrants to provide support to those less well integrated. MiMi does this by recruiting, training and supporting intercultural mediators to enable them to teach the health system of the hosting countries and related health topics to their migrant communities.

Though the project has created some traditional awareness raising tools – a five-language internet portal (www.addicted2life.eu) and series of informational leaflets, its main and innovative emphasis is building partnerships with the media as a natural and accessible channel for disseminating information to a wide audience with a view to changing existing perceptions and helping more people gain access to accurate information on the health and social aspects of using synthetic drugs. The observations recorded and media monitoring analyses undertaken in four mentioned European countries demonstrate that the media frequently fail to present the drug use problem in a manner that is useful to the audience and the criminal aspect routinely takes precedence over the health and social implications of the problem. Using training and active interaction with the media as a tool, the project aimed to help a broad audience make a healthy choice of conduct and lifestyle whilst creating a new model of press coverage of problems relating to drugs and drug use.

As part of these efforts a media contest was organized in four countries for journalistic materials, reflecting the topics of drugs and drug use in a relevant, informative and ethical manner. One of the main achievements of the project is the publication “Press coverage of drug related topics – a guide for media and non-governmental organizations”, written by the Bulgarian human rights journalist Yana Buhrer Tavanier and available in English, Bulgarian, Macedonian, French and Hungarian. The closing forum of the project – the conference “New media, new drugs, new addictions” outlined the necessity to reconsider the traditional ways of drug prevention and “speak” the language of the youngsters - the language of internet, You Tube, social networks and forums.Four country profiles with information on the use of amphetamines in Bulgaria, Macedonia, Hungary and France were produced, written in a narrative and popular style for the general audience. An international web-portal and a downloadable set of information materials were prepared. Over 200 online media kits were disseminated to journalists from the four countries included in the project. A list of key contacts in all the included countries were prepared and put at the web-portal for both media and NGO use. A group of 36 journalists was trained at an international training workshop for media on specifics, harms and risks associated with amphetamine use. Over 280 publications and broadcasts for the project were reached in media in Bulgaria, Macedonia, France and Hungary. The total expected number of impressions of these publications and broadcasts exceeds 1 000 000. Another concrete output is the development of manual for media and NGO harm reduction relations. In addition some 400 copies of it was published and disseminated. More than 100 key officials and opinion leaders on the subject in the four countries received information on the project, including reports and publications. A sustainable network of NGOs working in the area of harm reduction in the four countries was established.
