- description:
Target :adult and old age psychiatry.
Our psychiatric service is community based, detached from the hospital. It is a 24 hours mental 
health centre, that hosts in and out -patients. The work is equipe-organized: physicians, social 
workers, psychiatric rehabilitation educators, nurses work in it. Each centre hold from 4 to 8 
beds for acute patients. We practise as well brief psychotherapies, psychiatric consultations to the 
hospital and to the rest homes. The main aim of the service is to treat and create terapeutic bonds 
with people with mental disorders in the places where they live, through domiciliar consultations.
We are focusing on early onset psychosis, developing a peculiar pathway of care for the youth age 
patients. We coordinate the work together with the substance disorders department. 
Our service is no-restraint and open-door.

We do some research too, so far we published together with a trainee that did the 

programme a paper. You can find it here .
