Poor knowledge regarding mental health in general population
in Poland, along with media coverage limited to repetition of
harmful stereotypes towards patients treated at psychiatric wards
and reinforcement of discriminative attitudes, results in an unfair
evaluation and stigmatization of mental healthcare services. As a
consequence, psychiatry, in comparison to many other medical
fields, is unpopular among physiotherapy students, even though
there is a compulsory subject in the university curriculum that cov-
ers, in theory, all the important knowledge that healthcare worker
should possess in this regards. Young physical therapists are not
taught about specific needs of the psychiatric patients. After grad-
uation, they are lacking all basic skills on how to communicate with
the patient. Being devoid of a direct contact with people suffering
from mental disorders, physical therapists do not feel comfortable
placed in the mental healthcare facilities. The aim of the study was
to assess the extent of a basic psychiatric knowledge and general
attitudes towards mentally ill of the physiotherapy students. The
group consisted of 147 students. The pilot study has been limited
to those studying physical therapy within borders of the Opole
voivodship. Authors’ questionnaire has been developed in order
to reach the aim and answers were gathered between January
and June 2016. The results will be used to develop questionnaire
suitable to share with physiotherapy students within the whole
country and, consequently, formulate recommendations on nec-
essary changes that must be introduced to the physical therapy
curriculum in Poland by Polish Society of Physiotherapy (Psychiatry
Section).

Introduction The relationship between parents and children is
a complex link. In the process of pregnancy-birth-puerperium,
frequent feelings such as responsibility, love, fear, uncertainty, gen-
erate strong expectations at birth. The death of a newborn may not
be perceived as natural by the parents, considering the local culture
and the context of great technological development of neonatology.
Objective To explore possible guilt and fantasies in life experi-
ences of parents during mourning process due to death of their
newborn.
Method Clinical-qualitative design, a particularization of qual-
itative methods here applied in clinical assistance settings with
highlight to psychological aspects. Data collection with the tech-
nique of semi-directed interview with open-ended questions,
in-depth. Sample intentionally constructed, with closure by the-
oretical saturation of information. The participants were 7 parents,
mourning by the death of their child at the neonatal inten-
sive care unit, in a university hospital of Campinas, São Paulo
State.
Results Feelings of guilt - conscious or not - lead to an internal
and particular movement so that mourning can be lived. The par-
ticipants showed certain embarrassment, accompanied by natural
suffering facing to the cultural pattern that permeates the emo-
tional experience. It predicts types of psychological meanings that
the experience will give to the person.
Conclusion Health professionals working with bereaved parents
should consider more deeply the moment these one experienced,
with emphasis on the details of the death scenery, beside the prob-
lems of illness and death properly so called.
