چکیده: (79 مشاهده)
Background: Mental disorders are recognized as the main cause of disability in the world. It is estimated that mental disorders will be the second leading cause of disabilities in the world by the year 2020. Nowadays, the importance of mental health and its vast effect on the other sections of health (including physical, social, and spiritual health) is not deniable.
Methods: This comparative-descriptive study intends to compare mental health systems of Iran and the selected countries in the year 2019. In order to achieve this goal, two groups of countries were selected to be compared with Iran. The first group consisted of countries similar to Iran in terms of context and texture specifications, including Turkey, Iraq, and Lebanon. Moreover, the second group included countries that are known to be successful in managing and providing health services, including Norway, Canada and Australia. In order to evaluate and compare mental health systems, the authors used the WHO Assessment Instrument for Mental Health Systems (WHO-AIMS). A summarized version of the WHO-AIMS form was implemented for collecting the data.
Results: After evaluation of the data obtained by mental health assessment tool, the results for each country were summarized and presented in comparative tables. Comparing mental health systems in the selected countries and Iran showed that there are a number of differences between countries in different aspects.
Conclusion: While Iran has specific mental health policies, these policies are not implemented desirably because of the lack of executive guarantees in this manner.
