Fort Health’s Post

Join us on August 27th at 12:00 PM for "A Public Health Educator’s Viewpoint of The Anxious Generation." In March 2024, Jonathan Haidt, author and social scientist, released “The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness.” Since then, the book has received a great deal of attention. In the book, Haidt summarizes the research and describes four foundational harms of a phone-based childhood: social deprivation, sleep deprivation, attention fragmentation, and addiction. He calls on all of us to play a role in preventing these harms. Haidt provides action steps for parents, educators, schools, legislators, and young people.  In this presentation, an overview of the four harms will be provided, and the recommended action steps for advocates of children and youth. Action steps for public health professionals will be presented and discussed. Register today: https://lnkd.in/gjzJxe4t. #wellbeing #mentalhealth #technology #publichealth

How are you offering value to clients seeking care?

It’s an affront to our values. Why are we stuck in a system that asks us to predict our own health risks and budget accordingly? It’s morally exhausting to have to choose between care and cost.   Almost 40% of Americans delayed medical care in 2022 because of expenses, according to Gallup. And KFF found that prescription drug costs are another barrier for 28% of people.   This isn’t how healthcare should work. It certainly isn’t how mental health support should work.   At Sensible, we’re flipping the script—limiting financial risk with our membership model, yet providing real value for Minnesotans.

This is simply a myth! This is a prevalent belief, often attributing the condition to demonic possession or spiritual attacks. It can deter people from seeking professional help. FACT: Bipolar disorder is a real brain disorder, not caused by spirits. It needs medical treatment, not spiritual healing. Employee Assistance Programs (EAPs) play a crucial role in addressing the misconception that bipolar disorder is a spiritual problem by provide information and education, offering counseling services and facilitating access to care EAPs can help employees understand that bipolar disorder is a treatable medical condition and encourage them to seek professional help without fear or shame.

There is a strong body of research that supports the impact of support groups on emotional wellness, resilience, behavioral change, physical/emotional recovery as well as success with sustaining recovery from substance use. Support groups have been shown to be impactful for diverse populations including healthcare workforce, trauma survivors, refugees/immigrants and other unique populations. Additionally, research shows that support groups are effective and impactful with diabetes management, cancer treatment, infertility treatment, recovery from addiction, bereavement, and mental health complications like depression and anxiety. GPS builds upon the strong foundation of research showing that support groups have an impact on wellness, resilience, and recovery.

Enhancing access to behavioral healthcare is top of mind for Connecticut hospitals. It’s why CHA advocates for resources to fund statewide, community, and hospital-based initiatives that support child, adolescent, and adult patients, including by establishing Medicaid rate structures to cover that psychiatric care. It is encouraging that Connecticut is among the best states in the nation for mental health access, but the work is always ongoing.
