Co‐Producing an Intervention Involving Dental Professionals Providing Oral Health Support in a Mental Healthcare Setting
BACKGROUND: People with severe mental illness (SMI) are nearly three times more likely to lose all their natural teeth and five times more likely to have tooth decay compared to the general population, negatively impacting their physical and mental health and well-being. There is a need for greater focus on this area in research, policy and practice to reverse this unacceptable inequality. To address this health inequality, we aimed to co-produce…
Smoking Cessation Interventions for Young Adults – A Scoping Review
BACKGROUND: In the UK, the highest proportion of current smokers is in the 25-34 age group. Whilst there are effective smoking cessation interventions, they are not always accessed by young adults. An up-to-date review of smoking cessation strategies for young people has been conducted to understand the current state of the literature with a view to the implications for people with severe mental ill health (SMI). METHODS: A scoping review was con…
Can social adversity and mental, physical and oral multimorbidity form a syndemic? A concept and protocol paper
the syndemic conceptualisation provides a valuable framework to understand health and illness, and hence to better design and deliver effective and cost-effective preventative and curative integrated (syndemic) care to improve patient and population health. Such syndemic care aims to address the social determinants of health, whilst simultaneously managing all interlocked conditions
Developing a Consensus Statement to Target Oral Health Inequalities in People With Severe Mental Illness
INTRODUCTION: Oral diseases are more prevalent in people with severe mental illness (SMI) compared to those without mental illnees. A greater focus on oral health is needed to reverse unacceptable but often neglected oral health inequality in people with SMI. This provided the impetus for developing 'The Right to Smile' consensus statement. We aimed to develop and disseminate a consensus statement to address oral health inequality, highlighting t…
The influence of animal ownership on mental health for people with severe mental illness
Background and aims: There is increasing evidence to suggest companion animal ownership may positively impact mental health and wellbeing. However, there is limited research related to the role of companion animal ownership for mental health that focuses on people living with severe mental illness (SMI). We aimed to explore the connection among loneliness, mental health, wellbeing, animal ownership, and the perceived strength of the human-animal …
Co-producing a physical activity intervention with and for people with severe mental ill health – the spaces story
SPACES (Supporting Physical Activity through Co-production in people with Severe Mental Illness) is a study which aims to develop an intervention to increase physical activity created with and for people with severe mental ill health (SMI), their carers and professionals involved in physical activity and/or severe mental ill health. People with SMI are less physically active than the general population and have an increased likelihood of experien…
Can we better understand severe mental illness through the lens of Syndemics
Current health care systems do not sufficiently address contributors, also known as modifiable behavior factors, to severe mental illnesses (SMI). Instead treatment is focused on decreasing symptom-experience rather than reducing the detrimental effect of biological predisposition and behavioral influences on illness. Health care services and patients alike call for a more comprehensive, individual approach to mental health care, especially for p…
Physical Activity in Adults with Schizophrenia and Bipolar Disorder
Adults with severe mental ill health may have specific attitudes toward physical activity. To inform intervention development, we conducted a survey to assess the physical activity patterns, preferences, barriers, and motivations of adults with severe mental ill health living in the community. Data were summarised using descriptive statistics, and logistic regressions were used to explore relationships between physical activity status and partici…
Exploring Access to Mental Health and Primary Care Services for People With Severe Mental Illness During the Covid-19 Restrictions
Although most participants were satisfied with the mental health support they had received, a minority were not. This, couple with findings on future need for mental health support has implications for post pandemic demand on services. Remote care has brought benefits but also risks that it could increase inequalities in access to services
Transformation Beyond Covid-19
Research literature published during the COVID-19 pandemic highlights the loss of involvement opportunities for people with lived experience during the pandemic as well as the vital role lived experience advisors play at all times, including highlighting unseen aspects of the impacts of crises such as the COVID-19 pandemic. During the pandemic, researchers from the Closing the Gap Network (CtG) at the University of York worked to expand and diver…
A Year Into the Pandemic
We observed a series of factors that might amplify pre-existing health inequalities. Health systems should be mindful of this, and should redouble efforts to set in place changes to practice and policy, which can mitigate these inequalities. Examples might include; raising awareness of the importance of ensuring that people with SMI receive an annual physical health check and supporting people to maintain a daily routine
Sleep health among people with severe mental ill health during the Covid-19 pandemic
High estimates of perceived poor sleep quality in the SMI population align with previous findings. Supporting people with SMI to maintain routine regularity may work to protect sleep quality and wellbeing. Future research should more closely examine sleep health in people with SMI, using accessible and scalable measures of objective and subjective sleep, examining longitudinal trends
Exploring the contextual factors, behaviour change techniques, barriers and facilitators of interventions to improve oral health in people with severe mental illness
People with severe mental illness (SMI) have significantly poorer oral health compared to people without SMI and interventions targetted to improve oral health in this population failed to show any long-term improvement. Interventions are influenced by many contextual factors ranging from individual to systems level. This study aimed to understand the contextual factors, behaviour change techniques of the available oral health interventions and e…
A Qualitative Study Exploring the Barriers and Facilitators for Maintaining Oral Health and Using Dental Service in People with Severe Mental Illness
People with severe mental illness suffer from a high burden of oral diseases, which can negatively impact their physical and mental well-being. Despite the high burden, they are less likely to engage in oral health care including accessing dental services. We aimed to identify both the service users' and service providers' perspective on the barriers and facilitators for maintaining oral health and dental service use in people with severe mental …
Use of the Internet and Digital Devices Among People With Severe Mental Ill Health During the Covid-19 Pandemic Restrictions
Background: Restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic have led to everyday reliance on digitalisation of life, including access to health care services. People with severe mental ill health (SMI-e.g., bipolar or psychosis spectrum disorders) are at greater risk for digital exclusion and it is unknown to what extent they adapted to online service delivery. This study explored use of the Internet and digital devices during the pandemic restrictions…
The Role of Animal Ownership for People with Severe Mental Illness during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Research has reported the benefits of companion animals for people with severe mental illness (SMI). However, this evidence base is fragmented and unclear. The COVID-19 pandemic presents an opportunity to explore the role of companion animals in the context of social distancing and isolation measures for people with SMI. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the links between mental and physical health and animal ownership in people with SMI and to …
