How to strengthen mental health counseling for public transport employees?

Hello, I'm Chen Xulong, a psychological counselor, and I'm honored to answer your questions.

To be honest, it's hard to do. If it is not the problem of bus drivers in Guizhou, it is estimated that few people in the country will pay attention to the mental health work of bus employees.

In other words, looking at the whole country, which industry has done better mental health consultation? As far as I know, it is the judicial system and the health system. In the past, they had a large number of staff who trained and studied psychological counselors at public expense every year. However, the mental health consultation work of the health and family planning system has not been carried out much. The main psychological services of the judicial system include mental health screening, group counseling and individual counseling. Every province invests more than 3 million yuan in the prison system every year.

Therefore, it needs a lot of money, manpower and material resources to strengthen the mental health consultation of public transport employees. This is a systematic and big project, which needs the coordination of many departments to implement. This is not a simple matter.

Comparatively speaking, mental health screening is more feasible, just like physical examination. The unit can organize once a year to understand everyone's mental health and intervene in time.

In addition, for mental illness, most people will feel ashamed, that is, they feel that psychological problems are embarrassing and difficult to say. In this regard, we need to work hard on popular science of mental health.

In a word, society is a huge and complex system. In order to deal with the problem from the system, top-level design is needed to minimize the occurrence of bus incidents in Guizhou.

I hope it helps you.

The professional ethics and accomplishment of any industry are related to the mainstream values of society. To eradicate the problem, we need to exert our efforts in social structure, system and legal system to carry forward and defend social fairness and justice. This is something that a department or a group of professionals cannot change alone.

Take the following three measures for public transport practitioners:

First of all, drivers of public transport (including buses, passenger buses, high-speed trains, subways and airplanes) are given a comprehensive mental health check regularly, and their current working and living conditions are thoroughly evaluated.

Secondly, public transport units provide professional psychological services for employees and their families by hiring professional psychological teams. Fully understand their voices and demands, improve their treatment, quality of life and working environment, and let them live with more dignity.

In addition, regular public welfare science training on employees' mental health knowledge is held, so that everyone can recognize themselves, interact and communicate, find out early, strengthen prevention, respect and love each other, reasonably guide them, treat them in time, and recover as soon as possible.

Hello, I'm glad to see someone ask such a question. I'm very socially conscious. Public transport employees are related to the safety of many people to some extent, so their mental health and stability are also very important.

Judging from the bus crash in Guizhou, the mental health work of bus employees must be strengthened from the following aspects:

1. Strengthen the physical examination and screening of mental health and invest manpower, material resources and financial resources. There are popular services provided by the unit to strengthen everyone's economic burden, as well as customized services specially provided for individuals, so that everyone can selectively check and test some personal events and situations.

2. Increase publicity and lectures on mental health-related topics, so that people generally have this awareness to care about their psychological state, know what happened to them and where to seek help, instead of taking out their anger and revenge to understand the inner pain and helplessness. Employees give lectures once or twice a week or a month, and can read relevant publicity materials at other times.

3. Establish a group intervention mechanism, set up staff chat rooms, and open them regularly. Everyone can chat, chat, even complain. Care about each employee's personal status and stress events, and don't let employees struggle independently.

This requires the joint efforts of the whole system, not only the unit, but also the relevant systems and the government to make corresponding investment and planning.

You can't do more psychological screening and testing. If you do too much, you will have false feedback and lie, so you need to control the frequency and range, but you must do it.
