Understanding the community management of long-term physical and mental health conditions in Bolivia, Colombia and Guatemala
INTRODUCTION: Community-based healthcare approaches can improve outcomes and reduce costs for long-term physical and mental health conditions. To design, evaluate and implement such interventions, it is essential to explore the existing resources of community and healthcare institutions, understand stakeholder perspectives and identify potential barriers and facilitators to community-based care for non-communicable diseases. Our aim was to conduc…
Exploring the acceptability of remote care for people with psychotic disorders in the community
Service users and clinicians did not view remote delivery of care as a completely adequate substitute for in-person care but were receptive to its integration into hybrid models when both patient choice and clinician judgment were respected. The study highlights the need for software design to address resource limitations and individual differences, while considering the influence of training, device availability, and urbanization on remote care …
"Instead of Building More Buildings, They Should Plant More Trees", a Photovoice Study of Determinants of Happiness and Sadness Among East London Adolescents
Globally, mental health problems in adolescents, alongside associated morbidity and mortality, have never been higher. Local living, working and environmental conditions, socio-economics, and intra-individual and inter-individual processes impact mental health. The risk of developing mental health problems is higher in certain areas, including East London. However, limited research explores East London adolescents' experiences of mental health. A…
Words to deeds
This article reports on the outcomes of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander community–led project which sought to build a pathway to reconciliation through formulating a localised community response to the Uluru Statement from the Heart. The research follows a phenomenological research design which collected qualitative data from lived experiences of the participants. Phenomenological analysis was conducted iteratively on the data where them…
A systematic scoping review of Photovoice within mental health research involving adolescents
Photovoice is a research method that changes perceptions of mental health. However, there is a lack of evidence exploring how Photovoice is used in mental health research involving adolescents. Our review aimed to understand the nature and key themes across findings of Photovoice studies exploring mental health among adolescents. We used pre-existing data and updated a search strategy. Popay and colleagues’ guidance was used to analyse the studie…
Implementing psychosocial interventions within low and middle-income countries to improve community-based care for people with psychosis—A situation analysis
The results highlight the positive views toward psychosocial interventions within routine care and the enthusiasm for multidisciplinary working. However, barriers to implementation such as clinician time, individual attitudes toward psychosocial interventions and organizational concerns including the lack of space within the facility were highlighted. Such barriers need to be taken into consideration when designing how best to implement and susta…
Understanding global mental health
BACKGROUND: series on global mental health (GMH), the term has become widespread. Over the last two decades, GMH has become increasingly affiliated with policy reform, academic courses, funding bodies and research. However, it is not always obvious how those working in the field of GMH are using the term, resulting in a lack of clarity. Therefore, work is needed to synthesise the current understanding(s) of GMH to help characterise its meaning. A…
Healthcare system performance in continuity of care for patients with severe mental illness
Social Factors and Recovery from Mental Health Difficulties
Although there is now increasing evidence as to the role played by social factors in contributing to the onset of mental health difficulties, there has been little systematic examination of the role that social factors can play in enabling (or impeding) recovery. This paper provides a review of the emerging international literature in this area, and is linked to a wider conceptual review undertaken as part of a major project researching recovery …
