OBANDO CABEZAS, Lucely; SALCEDO SERNA, Marco Alexis  e  CORREA, Luisa Fernanda. Psychosocial care for armed conflict victims in public health locations. Psicogente [online]. 2017, vol.20, n.38, pp.382-397. ISSN 0124-0137.  https://doi.org/10.17081/psico.20.38.2559.

This reflection paper focuses on the possibilities of psychosocial intervention application for armed conflict victims care in relation to public health locations such as (hospitals, health care centers, etc.,...). Some conceptual implications of this comprehension model are proposed by different authors. In this paper, it is evident that health institutions are considered as socially inef ficient in their purposes of intervention for this population. If the demand is interpreted wrongly as an exclusive request for physical well-being, this ignores the cry for justice to Colombian society by this population. The suggested proposal in this paper is to take into account a psychosocial approach as an alternative in health institutions, which is focuses on guiding the intervention towards goals, which suggest psychosocial transformations.
