En julio de 2012 se implementó la primera Guardia de Salud Mental (GSM) en hospital general de Jujuy, con cobertura 24 horas. En 2017 hubo muchas renuncias y el dispositivo quedó prácticamente sin brindar cobertura. Este estudio indagó los factores motivadores de dicha deserción laboral. Los datos se recolectaron con un cuestionario ad hoc, administrado a todos los psicólogos y psiquiatras que trabajaron en la GSM entre julio/2012-septiembre/2017 (n = 28). Se realizaron análisis estadísticos descriptivos.
Las dificultades para desempeñar la labor se refirieron principalmente a aspectos:
institucionales, contractuales, salariales y de la red de salud. Dichas dificultades motivaron las renuncias, o bien, las motivarían en el futuro. Las motivaciones subjetivas que llevaron a elegir trabajar en la GSM (e.g., vocación, búsqueda de crecimiento profesional), fueron afectadas por dificultades objetivas resolubles (e.g., infraestructura edilicia, incumplimientos contractuales-salariales, fallas operativas del sistema de salud). Son necesarias políticas públicas que resuelvan estas dificultades
In July 2012, a Mental Health Guard (MHG) with a 24/24 hours service was implemented for the first time in a general hospital in Jujuy. Many waivers occurred in 2017 and this device remained practically uncovered by then. This study investigated the motivating factors for this job desertion. Data were collected using an ad hoc questionnaire that was administered to all psychologists and psychiatrists working for the MHG between July/2012 and September/2017 (n = 28). Descriptive statistical analyses indicate that waivers were due to institutional, infrastructural, contractual, salary, and health network aspects. These aspects drove then waivers or would motivate it afterward. The subjective motivations that led to choose working on the MHG (e.g., vocation, pursuit of professional growth), were troubled by objective, solvable issues (e.g., infrastructure, non-fulfillment of job contracts and salaries, operational failures of the health system). Public policies able to solve these issues were revealed as a necessity
