This semester, my group and I had to study a social organization, so we went to PAFAM. This is an institution thats depends of the "Hogar de Cristo". The mission of this place is to help people who has relatives with mental diseases (like schizophrenia, depression, alzheimer, epilepsy, etc) to take care of their loved ones and of themselves through daily issues: they teach about diseases and disorders, about the medicines and treatment, self-steem problems, etc.
In this project we have to observe the way this institution works, and if their interventions are efective enough...we are still working on it!, so I can't tell much about it. But so far, it has been fun...and stressing! This kind of experiences really prepare me professionally, it's very probable that, as a clinical psychologist, I'll face this kind of realities.
Well, this are the websites that I recomend you to visit to learn more about this topic:
Hope you like this, bye!
