Sanità, Malavasi: "Su salute mentale si investe meno rispetto a media europea"

adnkronos

(Adnkronos) - C’è “un tema strutturale legato a una scarsità di investimenti, sia in risorse sia in risorse umane, per quanto riguarda il tema della salute mentale. È un settore della nostra sanità in cui si investe meno rispetto alla media europea, quindi c'è bisogno di avere una maggiore attenzione in politica, anche perché i dati delle fragilità e dei disagi psicologici ci sono e sono sicuramente in aumento”. Lo ha detto Ilenia Malavasi, componente XII Commissione Affari Sociali, Camera dei deputati, intervenendo all’evento istituzionale ‘La salute parte dal cervello. Le Neuroscienze in Italia. Passato, presente e futuro’ promosso a Roma da Lundbeck Italia, in occasione del 30° anniversario di attività e impegno nel nostro Paese.

00:00I think there is a structural issue linked to a scarcity of investments, both in resources,

00:12both in human resources, as regards the whole issue of mental health.

00:17It is a sector of our health in which we invest less than the European average,

00:22so we need to pay more attention to politics,

00:25also because the data of the fragility of psychological disorders,

00:30of the fragilities that exist, are certainly on the rise, even after Covid.

00:35So the proposals we have worked on are those of the basic psychologist,

00:41precisely to overcome the social stigma that is often accompanied by these forms of pathologies,

00:48but also to insert into our schools the doorstep of school psychology,

00:54precisely to support the community, even from adolescence,

01:00in supporting fragility, requests for help,

01:04and they are valuable tools that can be used both to make a good programming of territorial policies,

01:10but also to send these children to second-level services with early commissioning.

01:18So it is an urgent issue that obviously requires an awareness and responsibility of the whole policy.
