Abstract:

Therapeutic Residential Services (TRSs) are apparatus implemented in the context of the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform which aim to support psychiatric deinstitutionalization. This paper compares dwellers of the TRS in two cities in Brazil, analyzing the relationship among the deinstitutionalization strategies and the different types of autonomy they produced. Nineteen individualstwo cities (referred as Paulo Delgado – PB and Franco Basaglia – FB) participated on this study. We performed participating observation visits, and we interviewed five managers and professionals who worked at the psychosocial attention nets. Narratives were created based on the field diaries and the transcription of the interviews. All the participants elevated their degree of autonomy, when compared to the time in which they lived the psychiatric hospitals. The different ways in which TRSs are organized in both cities produced different manners of exercising autonomy: in PD predominated a home autonomy, whilst in FB predominated autonomy in transiting through territory. In both cities, autonomy in administering financial resources was restricted. We consider public policies for deinstitutionalization were effective, although their operationalization could be enhanced.
