| 520 3# - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | Background. There is an increasing number of distressed Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) due to adverse working <br/>conditions and unresolved post-repatriation issues. The enactment of the Republic Act 11036 (Mental Health Act) <br/>in 2018 supports the commitment of the State in promoting and protecting the mental health of every Filipino.<br/>Methods. A systematic review of literature was conducted to generate evidence-based policy tools for the round <br/>table discussion conducted by the UP Manila Health Policy Development Hub, engaging all major stakeholders from <br/>all sides of the policy issue. Strengths and challenges of the current government initiatives in the phases of predeployment, deployment, repatriation, and reintegration were discussed to attain consensus policy recommendations. <br/>Results. Increased migration led to a cascade of distressed OFWs and their subsequent need for trained mental health <br/>professionals. In host countries, challenges in on-site services include (i) limited psychiatry practice as prescribed by <br/>law of the host countries, (ii) reciprocity of the host country in allowing more welfare officers, and (iii) budget to <br/>support more plantilla items of Assistance to Nationals (ATN) staff. The inter-agency collaboration and legal support <br/>for all phases of migration should be holistic and set.<br/>Conclusions and Recommendations. From the literature review and policy discussion, consensus recommendations <br/>included strengthening pre-deployment preparation, curbing the trafficking of minors, improving psychiatry practice <br/>through the Bilateral Labor Agreement, developing psychosocial counseling competencies among front line host <br/>country personnel, enhancing telecounselling services and exploring telemedicine, among others. |
