Summary

This observational study aims to design, implement, and evaluate the Adaptation Plan for Culturally Competent Care (PAACI) in the Acute Psychiatric Unit of Parc de Salut Mar, Barcelona. The study focuses on improving healthcare quality for immigrant patients by reducing cultural and linguistic barriers in psychiatric care.

The PAACI program includes educational materials in multiple languages, enhanced collaboration with social services, training for healthcare professionals in cultural competence, and the use of interpretation devices. Key outcomes include reducing mechanical restraints, improving patient adherence to treatment, decreasing hospital readmissions, and increasing outpatient care engagement.

The study will analyze data from immigrant patients admitted to the Acute Psychiatric Unit one year before and after the implementation of PAACI, using various clinical and patient satisfaction indicators. This initiative aims to promote equal and equitable healthcare for diverse populations, potentially serving as a model for other mental health units.
