Mental health is understood by every different community through a diverse range of attitudes, values, and norms. In a therapeutic setting, professionals should be aware of the range of cultural beliefs that they may encounter and how they interact with service users’ perspectives on the world and their mental health to be able to treat that individual with sensitivity and respect.

Currently, the Senedd’s Health and Social Care Committee is examining mental health inequities in Wales. One of the most important inequities which they are examining is focused on those barriers experienced by neurodiverse people in mental health. Barriers experienced by this group are not isolated but reflect broader themes, such as lack of service integration, lack of training, and diagnostic overshadowing. In this seminar, we will be looking at how mental health services can better accommodate neurodiverse clients and what the Welsh Government should know to improve health standards.

The mental health fallout of the concurrent health and economic crises has been huge, and experts predict this will only become more obvious as the months roll by. Waiting times for mental health treatment on the NHS are only increasing, could be viewing health as a local ecosystem be part of the solution to sustain and enhance the wellbeing of a whole community?

Psychiatric crisis services have provided vital help to individuals in crisis, but a significant percentage of clients feel that the crisis team’s approach and methods don’t meet their needs. Others encounter barriers to accessing mental health crisis teams, because of limited ways in which they can contact the service in the first place, or because they are told that they don’t meet the “threshold” for the crisis team’s help.

Empowering young people affected by self-harm through community activism https://learn.pavpub.com/product/empowering-young-people-affected-by-self-harm-through-community-activism/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=empowering-young-people-affected-by-self-harm-through-community-activism Tue, 17 May 2022 11:02:39 +0000 https://learn.pavpub.com/?post_type=product&p=40204 Established in 2013, Heads Above The Waves is a not for profit CIC that supports young people struggling with their mental health and specifically with self-harm. HATW tackles the stigma around these issues and promotes positive ways of dealing with the bad days.

HATW works in schools and colleges with young people, running workshops to help them feel less alone and be able to cope better. They have a website where they share advice, coping techniques, peoples stories, and sign post to helplines (hatw.co.uk). They also run a shop in Cardiff where they sell merch, and provide a safe space for people to come and chat. HATW attends and runs events aimed at developing community and sharing experiences. In general they advocate for young people and want people to know it's OK to not be OK. But with a focus on the importance of speaking about what you're going through and finding what works for you.

Hannah is an Events Manager who, alongside co-founder Si, started HATW so that young people didn't feel alone going through some of the things that they went through as teenagers. It all started with a conversation and has now snowballed due to Si and Hannah's inability to say no to anything!

The movement of care from hospitals to local communities and the placing of patients at the centre of their care plans has been a priority for several years. Considering recent legislative reform and the overall driver for change, we will think about how primary and secondary services can be more effective in providing care? Also, we will think about how professionals can support clients to develop the knowledge to manage and make informed decisions about their own mental health.

LGBTQ+ people have historically been overlooked as to their specific needs in the mental healthcare system, leaving many with a lack of trust in providers. People can be worried about disclosing their sexual orientation or gender identity to health professionals in case they are misunderstood, or the service doesn’t account for their particular needs.

Summary: From instances of physical violence while being sectioned under the Mental Health Act to the fact that community treatment orders are 10 times more likely to be used on Black people, especially young Black men, the evidence that mental health services are functioning under racial bias is inarguable. How can we change our services to reflect the diversity of our community? And in doing so, address the institutionalised racism that has made services feel so unsafe for many Black and Minority Ethnic people.

Mental healthcare services should be easily accessible for anyone who requires care. Although, in practice, the deaf and hard of hearing community often experience inequities, face communication barriers, find it difficult to access services, and consequently, have poorer health and treatment outcomes. In this seminar, we will look at what mental health services can do to deliver equitable care.
