Abstract:
IntroductionCommunity mental health centers (CMHC) are established for providing services to individuals with serious mental illness. In these centers, individual's need of treatment and care are expected to be met with a mental illness in the community as possible. The process of community mental health service creation in Turkey is relatively new and gaining popularity in last 7–8 years. First CMHC was established in 2008. After this date CMHCs’ have been opened and the target of 2016 is reaching across 236 CMHC in Turkey.ObjectivesIn this context, this study aims to provide views of psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, psychologists and occupational therapists who work in CMHC for the services that provided to individuals in these CMHC's and learn how to define their professional roles and responsibilities in CMHC.MethodsThis paper used qualitative research design. Data was collected from 7 CMHC in Ankara through in-depth interviews with a total of 30 people consisting of psychiatrists, nurses, social workers, psychologists and occupational therapists.ResultsThe participants look positively about given services, however, financial pressure in the creation process of services, problems in employee personal rights and lack of policies and services related to mental health forced employee and reduce the quality of services provided.ConclusionsThrough understanding perspectives of the professional staff toward community-based services will help to determine current problems in CMHC for policy makers.Disclosure of interestThe authors have not supplied their declaration of competing interest.

Abstract:
In 1978, in Italy, approval of Basaglias reform law marked a shift from an asylum-based to a community-based mental health system. The main aim of the reform was to treat patients in the community and no longer in psychiatric hospitals. Following the Italian model, similar reforms of mental health care have been approved worldwide. The community-based model aims to promote integration and human rights for people with mental disorders on the basis of their freedom to choose treatment options. By 2000, all psychiatric hospitals had been closed and all patients discharged. Mental health care is organized through the Department of Mental Health, which is the umbrella organization responsible for specialist mental health care in the community; this includes psychiatric wards located in general hospitals, residential facilities, mental health centres, and day-hospital and day-care units. Approval of Law 180 led to a practical and ideological shift in the provision of care to patients with mental disorders. In particular, the reform highlighted the need to treat patients in the same way as any other patient, and mental health care moved from a custodialistic to a therapeutic model. Progressive consolidation of the community-based system of mental health care in Italy has been observed in the past 40 years. However, some reasons for concern still exist, including low staffing levels, potential use of community residential facilities as long-stay residential services, and a heterogeneity in the availability of resources for mental health throughout the country.

Abstract:
The need to confine and restrain psychotic patients at the turn of the last century saw the building of a few large asylums which soon became overcrowded with the growth of the population. These asylums were the only service available to the mentally ill until 1959 when the trend to decentralise began with the building of general hospital psychiatric units.

Abstract:
This paper reflects on the process of co-producing mental health with informal actors, patients, health and social providers. In particular, this research examines the potential of territorial laboratories as places of experimentation for co-producing services for recovery. The Case study examined is the Brescia Recovery Co-Lab in Italy, developed with the aim to facilitate territorial experimentation of co-produced mental health and wellbeing services and initiatives with users, family members, local actors and service providers at the community level. Through a thematic analysis of the interviews, five main factors emerged that influence the co-production of mental health with informal resources: Time, Value, Participation, Co-design and Scale. The core of these factors concerns the experimentation with practices outside the traditional organisational logics typical of territorial laboratories, structures that favour dynamic co-production in mental health.

Abstract:
This paper assesses the value and limitations of a two-year community-engaged design thinking initiative across one county in the southeast United States. Initiative goals were to foster the design of more inclusive and holistic public health community-based services with underserved communities, institutionalize and socialize community-based design within a public health framework, and build organizational and individual capacities. Findings indicate the acquired design thinking processes transformed mental models, fostered new relationships, and built skills. Findings surfaced challenges related to grant and time constraints as well as organizational differences. Recommendations for service design practitioners and researchers seeking equity-centered, community-first practices are noted, including a commitment to emergent codesign practices, frequent and iterative prototyping, intentional cross-learning, and long-term transitionary resourcing and oversight.

Abstract:
The COVID-19 global pandemic has brought to light how public health outcomes are partially determined by governance and access to resources. In historically redlined communities, however, the availability and quality of neighborhood parks and grocery stores has been eroded by generations of disinvestment, leaving residents isolated as they work to build a healthier community. This paper shares the experiences of two community-led initiatives in Wyandotte County, Kansas, that have used community health design in collaborative settings to promote tangible improvements to green spaces and food systems during the pandemic.Both community health design case studies give context for how designers can reframe their methods of participation and collaboration and put them in service to community members who are closest to the issues being designed for. Building upon historical methods of participatory design, socially conscious designers can adopt principles of community engagement from public health practitioners and apply innovative research methods throughout the design process. The theories, processes, and outcomes of community health design illustrate a framework of participatory decision- making where designers can find common ground with the communities they serve.Though the pandemic did not introduce these conditions – park and food apartheids are symptomatic of a multi-generational epidemic of racism – this moment has highlighted the need for new ways of collaboration to address environ- mental health disparities. A framework of community health design is possible through the translation of community voices into a shared vision, designing governance structures to build community power, and turning design tools over to communities to define and achieve their desired publichealth outcomes.

In 3rd International Conference on Community Engagement and Education for Sustainable Development. AIJR Publisher, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.21467/proceedings.151.14.

Full text
Abstract:
Based on the 2020 Community Service Program (KKN) team analysis, Pakembinangun Village has been planning tourism village development. Pakembinangun Village has yet to be visited by tourists visiting Kaliurang, even though it has natural resources suitable for tourism. The village also has complete health facilities and has long been known as a place of healing. Based on this analysis, healing tourism was chosen as the focus program. Healing tourism utilizes the potential of natural, artificial, and human resources to treat and improve physical, mental, spiritual, and social health. At present, truly holistic healing tourism has yet to be founded in Indonesia. This healing tourism development program aims to increase economic growth, improve people's welfare, increase business opportunities for the community, increase community involvement, build financial independence, and utilize natural and cultural resources. To achieve this goal, several methods used were observation, interviews, literature study, Focus Group Discussion, socialization, and student involvement through KKN. A growth center strategy model was used to realize this idea. The initial development strategy centered on one location (growth center) will spread growth to secondary and tertiary areas (production centers). Integrating governance for developing growth and production centers will produce a multiplier effect regarding quality, quantity, and sustainability. In addition, this strategic model will also encourage the emergence of superior product innovations in growth and production centers. The community involvement model is used to develop the services in Wijayakusuma Healing Park. The existence of these services opens up community business opportunities. It increases village incomes through visitor fees, healthy drinks, and food production by Farmer's Women Group or Kelompok Wanita Tani, tour guides, administrative officers, health checkers, gymnastics instructors, masseurs, accommodation provision, dance, etc.

This Evidence Check commissioned by NSW Ministry of Health aimed to evaluate delivery of physical health interventions for people living with a mental illness, delivered though community mental health programs. The review found that sufficient evidence exists to support a number of interventions, with further evaluation; and identified and describes key characteristics for effectiveness such as duration of the intervention and mode of delivery (e.g. face-to-face or telephone, group or individual). The supported interventions and/or actions included: multi-strategy lifestyle behaviour change interventions; care delivery models including peer-led self-management and staff delivered interventions; integration of new physical health care models or initiatives; referral to other services (e.g. telephone Quitline); assessing barriers and enablers prior to implementation; and the involvement of peer workers and consumers in design and delivery.

Full text
Abstract:
This report evaluates the two-year Community Health Worker (CHW) service in Scotland delivered by a third sector organisation, Minority Ethnic Carers of People Project (MECOPP), which provided training to Gypsy/Travellers to advocate for their community on health and social care issues. The service, which was created as part of the Scottish Government and COSLA's joint action plan to address inequalities faced by Gypsy/Travellers , was designed with the intention to improve their health and wellbeing. Funding for the service was secured by The Scottish Public Health Network and the Directorate for Chief Medical Officer. The evaluation was conducted by the Mother and Infant Research Unit (MIRU) at the School of Health Sciences, University of Dundee, and covered the initial two-year period from August 2021 to August 2023. There has been extensive evidence showing that Gypsy/Travellers residing in the UK tend to face significant health disparities, resulting in outcomes that are not as favourable as those of the general population and other similarly disadvantaged groups. Gypsy/Travellers face high rates of homelessness, inadequate education, unemployment, poverty, and regular experiences of racism and discrimination . This profoundly affects their mental health and overall well-being. Additionally, the potential for lack of trust between Gypsy/Travellers and healthcare professionals impacts health seeking behaviour and health service provision, as there are also barriers in accessing responsive health services and preventative care interventions. Evidence indicates that community-based lay roles can improve healthcare access, reduce costs, and promote knowledge exchange between communities and health services through trusted individuals . This project aimed to evaluate the implementation of the Gypsy/Traveller CHW service, including barriers and facilitators, and make recommendations for its future scale-up. Objectives included describing the roles and activities of the CHWs, exploring the acceptability and feasibility of the service, identifying implementation barriers and facilitators, describing any modifications made, and examining the perceived benefits and disadvantages of the CHW service.

Full text
Abstract:
This report presents the results of an investigation by Greo Evidence Insights into how Canadian mental health (MH) costs could be estimated. It begins by conducting a review of studies estimating the costs of MH in Canada since 2010 and examines the various approaches employed. Based on this analysis the next section makes recommendations regarding cost types to include, the granularity of the estimates, and the approach to missing/ incomplete data. The report then recommends a phased approach to estimating the cost of mental health: Phase I describes in detail the data sources and methods to estimate public, direct health care costs associated with general and psychiatric MH-related hospitalizations and emergency room visits and non-hospital-based interventions (i.e., physician costs, pharmaceutical costs, community MH services). Phase II describes methods for estimating social and income support payments and indirect costs. Finally, Phase III describes data sources and methods for estimating private health and lost productivity costs.

Abstract:
This paper presents the development and execution of a specialised university training program designed to support Peer Support Advisors (PSAs) within The Living Room: a low-barrier peer-led mental health service. The primary objective was to investigate the training program's impact on the knowledge and attitudes of PSAs. Two questionnaires were administered: a pre-training questionnaire to establish participants' initial attitudes and knowledge levels, and a post-training questionnaire to assess any changes following completion of the program. Additionally, a feedback questionnaire was used to gather qualitative insights on the training experience. The integration of qualitative narrative accounts with quantitative data facilitated a thorough understanding of the program's effects. The results revealed a consistent enhancement in confidence and understanding among PSAs post-training, indicating significant improvements in their knowledge and attitudes relevant to their roles. The study highlights the effectiveness of this training approach in bolstering PSA skills and capabilities. The Living Room's PSA training program exemplifies the positive impact of such initiatives on students' ability to provide effective peer support. Key insights include the importance of inclusivity, awareness of available services, and practical application of acquired skills in diverse student contexts. The utilisation of pre/post assessments and feedback surveys offers a robust framework for evaluating training efficacy and overall participant satisfaction. These findings emphasise the value of investing in comprehensive training programs to empower peers and cultivate a supportive university community.

Abstract:
Population ageing is a global phenomenon which presents major challenges for the provision of care at home and in the community (ONS, 2018). Challenges include the human and economic costs associated with increasing numbers of older people with poor physical and mental health, loneliness, and isolation challenges (Mihalopoulos et al., 2020). The global ageing population has led to a growth in the development of technology designed to improve the health, well-being, independence, and quality of life of older people across various settings (Fang, 2022). This emerging field, known as “AgeTech,” refers to “the use of advanced technologies such as information and communications technologies (ICT’s), technologies related to e-health, robotics, mobile technologies, artificial intelligence (AI), ambient systems, and pervasive computing to drive technology-based innovation to benefit older adults” (Sixsmith, et al., 2020 p1; see also Pruchno, 2019; Sixsmith, Sixsmith, Fang, and Horst, 2020). AgeTech has the potential to contribute in positive ways to the everyday life and care of older people by improving access to services and social supports, increasing safety and community inclusion; increasing independence and health, as well as reducing the impact of disability and cognitive decline for older people (Sixsmith et al, 2020). At a societal level, AgeTech can provide opportunities for entrepreneurs and businesses (where funding and appropriate models exist) (Akpan, Udoh and Adebisi, 2022), reduce the human and financial cost of care (Mihalopoulos et al., 2020), and support ageing well in the right place (Golant, 2015).

Abstract:
The Nordic Rural Youth Panel has synthesized a report outlining 40 actionable recommendations for making rural areas in the Nordic region more attractive for young people. This paper addresses the ongoing trend of young people moving to cities, highlighting the need for better public transportation, a variety of housing options, and education that connects to local job markets in rural areas. The panel wants to change the common view that success and a good life can only be found in cities, showing instead that rural areas have a lot to offer. The report expands on several key areas: - Transportation: Young people in rural areas need easy and affordable access to public transit and various local travel options to support a fair transition to green transport. - Housing: There's a need for affordable and diverse housing, ensuring young people have good options for both renting and buying that meet their needs, and are linked to local services and community activities. - Education and employment: Young people need access to education at all levels in rural areas, with clear paths from education to local jobs, including options for remote work. - Health and recreation: There should be safe spaces for discussions about mental and physical health, as well as access to places for sports and other activities. - Community and social life: Funding is needed for public spaces and activities that bring people together, helping to create strong community ties. - Inclusion: Policies and discussions need to be accessible and relevant to young people, using their language and platforms to ensure they can actively participate and feel valued. Developed with input from 25 young people across the whole Nordic region, the panel’s recommendations provide a direct and valuable perspective for policymakers. It serves as a guide for creating appealing, dynamic, and sustainable rural communities, ensuring young people are at the centre of these efforts.
