On the afternoon of May 26th, 2023 Hi Youth Ability Growth Camp (Phase I) of College of Ocean Science and Engineering visited Shanghai Pudong Mental Health Center for learning and exchange.
Under the guidance of Dr. Zhou Yajin from Pudong Mental Health Center, the participants of the Growth Camp went to the group rehabilitation therapy room. The rehabilitation nurses were leading the patients to perform music therapy. The students also participated in the experience and practice of body percussion music.
After experiencing group music therapy, the students had a preliminary understanding of the overall layout, outpatient distribution and patient treatment procedures of Shanghai Pudong Mental Health Center. They also visited the rehabilitation treatment department, insomnia treatment Center and the exhibition room of occupational therapy of Shanghai Mental Health Center. The exquisite handmade works and abstract paintings of the patients brought a visual feast to the students. The warm, comfortable, clean and hopeful medical environment, as well as advanced medical equipment, a variety of recreational equipment, and one-stop diagnosis and treatment services have changed people's old perceptions of mental health centers.
Through the field visit to Pudong Mental Health Center, the students gained a lot, and said that it was different from what they imagined before, greatly enriched the understanding of the mental center, deepened the learning of abnormal psychology knowledge, but also felt the patient and help workers in the face of illness, tough and brave mentality, so as to strengthen the students to improve their mental ability. The confidence of participating in peer psychological help work can better give play to the enthusiasm and initiative of college students to help themselves.
