摘要
The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic and its resulting health measures led to occupational disruption in several contexts of everyday life. This study aimed to investigate the occupations of users of a unique Brazilian mental health service during the pandemic. This qualitative case study utilized semi-structured interviews to examine the lived experiences of 14 individuals (11 male and 3 female) who were users of a Center of Convivencia for mental health. The participants were primarily from low-income backgrounds and mostly identified as Black. Two categories emerged from the content analysis: occupations experienced in and through the Center of Convivencia and at home. The center was one of the few places attended by users outside home. During the pandemic, users reduced their weekly attendance, choices, and modality for participating in workshops at the center. Also, they presented a home-restricted life before the pandemic, with limited social circulation, access to leisure and work opportunities. Thus, users had few changes in routine during the pandemic, and housework was their main occupation. Although users had no changes in the existing social limitations and occupational deprivation in the home environment, they experienced occupational disruptions in the Center of Convivencia during the pandemic. La pandemie de coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) et les mesures sanitaires qui en ont decoule ont entraine des perturbations occupationnelles dans plusieurs contextes de la vie quotidienne. Cette etude visait a examiner les occupations des personnes usageres d'un service de sante mentale bresilien unique en son genre pendant la pandemie. Cette etude de cas qualitative a utilise des entretiens semi-diriges pour examiner les experiences vecues par 14 personnes (11 hommes et 3 femmes) qui etaient usageres d'un Centre de Convivencia pour la sante mentale. Elles etaient principalement issues de milieux a faibles revenus et s'identifiaient pour la plupart comme noires. Deux categories ont emerge de l'analyse de contenu : les occupations vecues dans et par le Centre de Convivencia et a la maison. Le centre etait l'un des rares endroits frequentes par les personnes usageres en dehors de leur domicile. Pendant la pandemie, celles-ci ont reduit leur presence hebdomadaire, leurs choix et leurs modalites de participation aux ateliers du centre. De plus, elles presentaient une vie restreinte a la maison avant la pandemie, avec une circulation sociale, un acces aux loisirs et des opportunites de travail limitees. Ainsi, les usageres et usagers ont eu peu de changements dans leurs routines pendant la pandemie, et les taches menageres constituaient leur principale occupation. Bien que les personnes usageres n'aient pas vecu de changements par rapport aux limitations sociales existantes et de privations occupationnelles au domicile, elles ont connu des perturbations occupationnelles au Centre de Convivencia pendant la pandemie.
