Answer:
Somalia has experienced war and environmental issues for the last four decades. Mental Health
and/or Illness is disregarded as an unmentionable disease with the sufferers being treated as if
they are no better than an animal, chained and locked away so that no-one may see them. There
are Mental Health Facilities which have been used as a dumping ground for anyone that the
community may see as undesirable.
Recently documented in the European Union, Essential Package of Health Services, Somaliland
(2009) is that ‘Mental Health’ should be streamlined across all levels of the Health System. This
is a desired aim, but currently there is not the financial and/or technical capacity to perform this
goal. This requires input from all agencies to develop and champion the mainstreaming of mental
health care.
My Project focuses on the Mental Health Ward, of Hargeisa Group Hospital where I am
presently working as the Gruppo per le Relazioni Transculturali (GRT) Mental Health Project
Manager, Mental Health Program, in Somalia. This ward was opened in 1971 by the then
President of Somalia Mohamed Siyad Bare. It contains 62 beds, both male and female, large
grounds that surround both sides with an administration building separating the wards. The care
is present to some degree but the quality is non-existent, and along with chaining being used as
the method used to restrain the patients.
Furthermore the inpatients are locked away in cell like rooms with no access to sunlight. No,
regular hygiene practices transpire as well as no bed linen or mattresses are provided. Human
rights violations of a person with a disability occur every day as evidenced by the staffs’
demonstration of complacency in his/her actions.
As detailed in the article written by Drew & Funk et al (2011) stigma and discrimination lead to
pervasive human rights violation against people with mental and psychosocial disabilities in lowincome countries and human rights violations span basic civil, cultural, economic, political and
social rights. Of the key messages identified within this article, the two major concerns in the
healthcare context that are pertinent to my project are that users of the service experience
difficulty accessing the facility and if ones succeeds here then the user experiences ill treatment
and abuse by the workers and/or other users.
Based on my findings upon completion of the assessment my International Law Society (ILS)
Project for 2011-2012 will institute minimum standards within the Mental Health Ward of
Hargeisa Group Hospital by developing a ‘Best practice of Minimum Standards & Service
Delivery Manual’ with reference to United Nations-Convention on the Rights of Persons with
Disabilities’ (UN-CRPD). The methodology used will be the ‘WHO Quality Rights Toolkit’
which will provide the foundation for the Manual. It is important to mention here that Somalia
has not signed the UN-CRPD.

report writing
Explanation:
On Monday, April 08, 2019, 21 students of Psychology Minor Batch ’16 visited the Hospital of
Mental Health, Shahibaug, Ahmedabad, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. IST. This brief but
intensive field trip provided first hand practical insight into the workings of a mental hospital and
the day-to-day activities of mental health professionals including but not limited to psychiatrists,
clinical psychologists, occupational therapists, psychiatric nurses, mental health social workers
and psychometrists to name a few. The major objective of the field trip was to get students to
relate their classroom knowledge of symptoms and treatments of mental disorders to the realworld setting, observing similarities as well as discrepancies.
Other than observing patients with common disorders like schizophrenia spectrum, bipolar,
addiction, neuroses, etc. they also got a chance to observe the medico-legal, emergency, outpatient, IQ assessment and occupational health departments in action. Fortunately they got an
opportunity to observe live cases of patients being diagnosed via the ICD-10 as well.
