- Open dialogue through telehealth: exploring family and professionals experiencesPublication . Ferreira, Ana Raquel da Rocha; Silva, Maria Goreti Moreira Magalhães De Sousa; Correia, Maria de Oliveira; Campos, FilipaTelehealth can be a convenient option, more adjustable to patients´ needs, and can improve access to services. However, its implementation often brings challenges. Open dialogue (OD) has the potential to address some of these barriers. Once implemented, OD is a person-centered, non-institutional, and non-medicalized approach that promotes patients’ rights and recovery. This chapter aims to introduce the OD approach and explore its potential in a remote setting. The focus will also be on the challenges of using telehealth for OD, providing recommendations on how it can be implemented and its requirements, and sharing patients´ and professionals’ experiences of network meetings on a more flexible and adapted version of this approach.
- Use of socially assistive robots in mental health: barriers and facilitatorsPublication . Ferreira, Ana Raquel da Rocha; Silva, Maria Goreti Moreira Magalhães De Sousa; Correia, Maria de Oliveira; Simões De Almeida, Raquel; Simões-Silva, Vítor; Trigueiro, Maria JoãoAccess to mental healthcare is faced with many challenges and to address the needs of patients, socially assistive robots (SAR) have been used as an innovative therapeutic tool. The literature highlights a variety of relevant functions and benefits that these robots can serve, be it companion, coach, or play partner. This chapter aims to contribute to the current knowledge about SAR in mental health as a tool that could complement the support provided by professionals, identifying its barriers and facilitators. Despite the presence of certain barriers to their implementation (e.g., technical problems, professionals' resistance), social robot interventions generally show positive effects on patients with mental health conditions.
