This book challenges the perception of the psychiatric chart as a
neutral and objective text. The chapters included in this book
coalesce to reveal the psychiatric chart as a text that is, in
fact, "storied" by institutional ideology that reflects,
reinforces, reinterprets, and, at times, resists gendered, raced,
sexualized, and classed norms, values, and presuppositions.
Intersectional analysis highlights the nuanced ways in which
dominant ideologies are activated in chart documentation to produce
qualitatively specific psychiatric narratives of distress and
related responses in the psychiatric institution. The book serves
as a much-needed resource for mental health professionals,
education and training programs, and researchers that meaningfully
takes into account the social and structural materiality of
people's lives and its impact on experiences of distress. It will
also appeal to scholars investigating equity in health care across
the fields of Critical Psychology, Disability Studies, Social Work,
Allied Health, Mad Studies and Social Justice.
