Creative interference in the teaching-service relationship: itineraries of an Education by Work for Health Program (PET-Health).

This paper discusses teaching-service integration within the PET-Mental Health Program by looking at the produced affectations articulation teaching-research-assistance and in meetings between students, teachers, and health workers. We used different resources (memories, reports, and papers) during experiences from 2012 to 2014. We presented some devices, such as education, co-management of research, and teaching meetings; we also presented some effects such as the potential of the network and the co-responsibility for attention to mental health cases, improvement in Single Therapeutic Projects and healthcare co-ordination, expansion of educational function played by health practices, and issues about professional education at the university. The relationship between university and health practices was at a formative stage and may be characterized by creative interferences and by effects on people who were involved with experience.
