SAMPIETRO, Hernán M; ROJO, J Emilio  and  GOMEZ-BENITO, Juana. Recovery-oriented care in public mental health policies in Spain: opportunities and barriers. Clínica y Salud [online]. 2023, vol.34, n.1, pp.35-40.  Epub June 26, 2023. ISSN 2174-0550.  https://dx.doi.org/10.5093/clysa2023a4.

Recovery-oriented care is the proposal incorporated in the new mental health strategic plans of both the World Health Organization and the Spanish National Health System. This article takes a journey from the initial proposals of the recovery model to the way recovery-oriented care is currently defined, understood as a community intervention, person-centred, and based on rights. The existing consensus around the CHIME model is also explained in order to understand what kind of interventions are needed to transform mental health services. Likewise, some of the main existing programs and projects to promote recovery-oriented care are presented, and a number of existing barriers to their implementation are analysed.

Keywords : Mental health; Recovery; Public policies.
