Descrição

ABSTRACT Objective: to report the experience of the Psychiatric Nursing professors of the Nursing Undergraduate Course of the Nursing School, Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG) and the challenges faced to offer quality training. Method: This is an experience report about the experience of Psychiatric Nursing professors of the Nursing Undergraduate Course of the Nursing School, UFMG. Results: After losing the workload of 120 hours in the Psychiatric Nursing Undergraduate Course, the area developed elective disciplines with a total of 330-hour load, in addition to extension and research projects. Final considerations: the precariousness of the area of Nursing training after curricular restructuring in a higher education institution, whether in relation to hour load or in the allocation of teaching vacancies, is in line with advances of the Brazilian Psychiatric Reform and epidemiological data of psychic illness and drug use.
