Çocuk İstismarında Rehabilitasyon ve Tedavi Merkezleri

Öz

Her yıl çocuklara yönelik istismar ve ihmal konusunda milyonlarca rapor düzenlenmekte ve adli davalar yürütülmektedir. Çocuklara yönelik istismarın tarihin bilinen tüm dönemlerinde yaşandığını görmekteyiz. Çocuk istismarının ve ihmalinin mağdur çocuklar üzerinde önemli ve kalıcı etkileri olabilmektedir. İstismar bildirimi yapıldıktan sonra çocukların yaşadıkları ruhsal dinamiklerin ruh sağlığı profesyonelleri tarafından bilinmesi çocukları korumak adına önemlidir. İstismar olgularının tedavisinde Bilişsel Davranışçı Terapiler ve ilaç tedavileri yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Ancak bazı olgularda; mağdurların ortamdan uzaklaştırılması, eğitim hayatlarına devam edebilmelerinin sağlanması, güvenli bir alanda profesyonel kişiler tarafından tedavi yöntemlerinin uygulanması gerekmektedir. Bu amaçla dünyanın birçok ülkesinde Rezidental Tedavi merkezleri kurulmuştur. Türkiye'de ise ilk rezidental kurumu olan "Oğuz Kağan Köksal Sosyal Bakım ve Rehabilitasyon Merkezi" Adana ilinde kurulmuştur. Bu yazıda çocuk istismarının tarihsel boyutu, tanımı, ruhsal dinamikleri, yol açtığı ruhsal bozukluklar, tedavi yaklaşımları ve rezidental tedavi merkezleri gözden geçirilmeye çalışılmıştır.
