Abstract:
Bir Hospital, the first general hospital with specialist services was established in the country in 1889 A.D. When I came back to Nepal after MBBS in 1971, most of the specialties like Medicine, Surgery, Gynae & Obs, Opthalmology, ENT, Psychiatry, Anesthesiology, Radiology, Emergency department with 24 hours service were there. Paediatric OPD service was available, and children were admitted in Kanti children hospital Kathmandu. So mental health service in Nepal was started in a general hospital with different specialties.

Abstract:
Background People with serious mental illness experience worse physical health and greater mortality than the general population. Crude rates of A&E attendance and acute hospital admission are higher in people with serious mental illness than other hospital users. We aimed to further these findings by undertaking a standardised comparison of urgent and emergency care pathway use among users of mental health services and the general population. Methods Retrospective cohort analysis using routine data from 2013–2016 from the CUREd dataset for urgent and emergency care contacts (NHS 111, ambulance, A&E and acute admissions) and linked mental health trust data for Sheffield, England. We compared annual age- and sex-standardised usage rates for each urgent and emergency care service between users of mental health services and those without a recent history of mental health service use. Results We found marked differences in usage rates for all four urgent and emergency care services between the general population and users of mental health services. Usage rates and the proportion of users were 5–6 times and 3–4 times higher in users of mental health services, respectively, for all urgent and emergency care services. Users of mental health services were often more likely to experience the highest or lowest acuity usage characteristics. Conclusions Current users of mental health services were heavily over-represented among urgent and emergency care users, and they made more contacts per-person. Higher service use among users of mental health services could be addressed by improved community care, more integrated physical and mental health support, and more proactive primary care. A complex pattern of service use among users of mental health services suggests this will need careful targeting to reduce avoidable contacts and optimise patient outcomes.

Abstract:
Objective: To describe the activity of a rural-based free call 1800-Mental Health Information and Support Service (1800-MHISS) which provides a 24-hour single point of contact for people experiencing a mental health problem. Method: Routine data collected during a 15 month period concerning service utilisation, caller characteristics, service provision, triage assessment and the impact of the service on after-hours services are described. Qualitative data from a survey of emergency department and community mental health is discussed. Results: The service received an average of 1117 calls per month. While a majority of calls were for information and support, 13% required a triage assessment and, of these, 13% resulted in an emergency response. Analysis of pre and post study data demonstrated a 43% reduction in the activation of after-hours services. Conclusions: Overall, the study suggests the 1800-MHISS provides a safe and efficient response to psychiatric emergencies and is valued by Emergency Department and community mental health staff.

Abstract:
The purpose of the present paper was to review the current models of mental health service delivery used in the emergency department (ED) setting. A search was conducted of the nursing and medical literature from 1990 to 2007 for relevant articles and reports. Consideration was also given to the global and local context influencing contemporary mental health services. Wider sociopolitical and socioeconomic influences and systemic changes in health-care delivery have dictated a considerable shift in attention for mental health services worldwide. The ED is a topical location that has attracted interest and necessitated a response. The mental health liaison nurse (MHLN) role embedded within the ED structure has demonstrated the most positive outcomes to date. This model aims to raise mental health awareness and address concerns over patient-focused outcomes such as reduced waiting times, therapeutic intervention and more efficient coordination of care and follow up for individuals presenting to the ED in psychological distress. Further research is required into all methods of mental health service delivery to the ED. The MHLN role is a cost-effective approach that has gained widespread approval from ED staff and mental health patients and is consistent with national and international expectations for mental health services to become fully integrated within general health care. The mental health nurse practitioner role situated within the ED represents a potentially promising alternative for enhanced public access to specialized mental health care.

Abstract:
Only a small proportion of the treatment of mental illness occurs in an institution or hospital. By far the most significant treatment happens in the community and in the patient's own social and family environment. However, de-institutionalisation of mental health services has brought increasing numbers of patients to the emergency department in need of psychiatric assistance. The traditional service model of emergency departments, focusing on physical illness and injury, is being challenged. The literature review identified numerous psychiatric service models inplace but dramatically highlighted the lack of a specific service model addressing psychiatric patients who present on multiple occasions [multi-presenters] in emergency departments. At present, accurate data on the effects of multi-presentation of psychiatric disorders are not available. Recent international and local research into models of service delivery management and best practice is examined.

Abstract:
Background: Paramedics are increasingly involved in providing emergency mental healthcare through specialist mental health paramedic roles or expanded responsibilities within generalist roles. Methods: This article reviews the relevant academic literature to critically evaluate the opportunities and challenges of greater paramedic involvement in mental health. Findings: Potential benefits include prompt crisis response, improved service integration, and enhanced accessibility. However, challenges exist around limited mental health training, role ambiguity, care continuity, and stakeholder concerns. Conclusion: Realising the benefits of paramedics in mental healthcare requires investment in education, clear protocols, strong governance, and collaboration with mental health professionals and service users to ensure safety and quality.

Abstract:
Aims and MethodAn emergency response service (ERS) was introduced to streamline the assessment of individuals presenting in a crisis in one sector of a large provincial city. Data on service activity, clinical details and outcome were recorded on consecutive referrals to the service over the first 6 months of operation, and all patients were offered the opportunity to complete the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire.ResultsSeventy-five per cent of those referred accepted the offer of assessment, and the majority were seen in their own home within 2 hours. One in ten individuals were not offered any further mental health input and 17% were hospitalised. The number of admissions via primary care fell by 60% after the introduction of this service. However, at its peak of activity the service received an average of only two referrals per day and three each weekend. Only 30% of referrals were received outside of normal office hours. Service users and general practitioners were found to be more satisfied with the service than the staff that provided it.Clinical ImplicationsThe introduction of the ERS led to a faster, more consistent process of assessment of crisis referrals and assessment undertakings in the community, and appeared to increase the use of alternative treatments for individuals in crisis before resorting to admission. Funding opportunities are restricted for the development of crisis services. The development of emergency response services for the use of current staff from a number of community mental health teams is an option worth considering.

Abstract:
BackgroundThe National Confidential Inquiry into suicides in England and Wales found that a quarter of suicides are preceded by mental health service contact in the year before death. However, visits to accident and emergency departments due to self-harm may not lead to a record of mental health service contact.AimsTo determine the proportion of suicides preceded by accident and emergency attendance in the previous year.MethodWe obtained the list of probable suicides in Leeds for a 38-month period, and examined the records from thecity's accident and emergency departments for a year before each death.ResultsEighty-five (39%) of the 219 people who later died by suicide had attended an accident and emergency department in the year before death, 15% because of non-fatal self-harm. Final visits dueto self-harm were often shortly before suicide (median 38 days), but the National Confidential Inquiry recorded about a fifth of them as‘not in contact’ with local mental health services.ConclusionsAlthough many suicides are preceded by recent attendance at accident and emergency departments due to non-fatal self-harm, local mental health service records may show no recent contact. Suicide prevention might be enhanced were accident and emergency departments and mental health services to work together more closely.

Abstract:
Studies have shown that emergency mental health trauma (EMHT) services can significantly reduce the long-term effects of trauma after a disaster. However, rural municipalities may find they do not have the capacity to create such a service, or may not realize that their disaster planning includes no provision for emergency mental health care. Such was the case in a rural island community in the state of Washington, where, in 2014, several residents initiated a discussion that helped to identify the community's lack of EMHT services. This project, framed by action research and based on collaboration theory, sought to advance the potential for the community's 21 resident social workers to address this issue collaboratively. Accordingly, the project's research question asked how social workers on south Whidbey Island perceived the issue of a rural EMHT service in their community. Data consisted of responses from 8 participants who completed mailed questionnaires and participated in brief telephone interviews. Descriptive coding analysis of the data confirmed a nearly universal lack of knowledge about an EMHT service, a clear perception of the need for such a service, and a unanimous commitment from the respondents to participate in addressing this problem. Such collaborative activity is expected to have a positive impact on the micro, mezzo, and macro levels of social work practice in south Whidbey, as well as on the community itself, not only in spearheading a dialogue about EMHT but also in activating a group of social workers who had no prior association.

Abstract:
Understanding and assessing the needs of Emergency Medical Service (EMS) personnel and other first responders is crucial for providing these individuals with the resources needed within their community. The literature discusses how EMS personnel are at risk for psychological impairment due to routine exposure to traumatic events and occupational stressors within EMS organizations. Additionally, the research has supported the importance of positive coping abilities, organizational belongingness, and social support within the lives of EMS personnel to enable them to resiliently handle the occupational stress of their job. This study investigated the occupational needs of EMS providers to determine if they are receiving resources within their organization to cope with occupational stressors. Participants for this study comprised (n=153) paramedics and fire-fighters from the Tidewater EMS Council organization. A needs assessment was conducted to explore correlations between quality of life, resiliency, years of service, level of education, burnout, secondary traumatic stress, interpersonal support, positive and negative religious coping, and the occupational needs of EMS personnel. The results revealed that burnout (r=4.27**) and secondary traumatic stress (r.215*) were important factors for determining occupational turnover among EMS personnel. Furthermore, EMS providers reported occupational needs such as easier access to mental health, improved staff relations, adequate staffing, and improved shift hours are needed within their organization. Future research should explore differences in occupational needs with EMS providers among EMS organizations in metropolitan and rural communities.

Abstract:

The purpose of this action research study was to examine the effects of the stigma of mental illness towards individuals with mental illness on services provided by medical professionals, specifically, registered nurses who work in an emergency department (ED). There have been numerous studies on how attitudes towards mental illness can be present in health care professionals; however, none that focused specifically on the attitudes of ED nurses. Nurses working in the ED are often the first health care professional a patient with mental illness sees and their attitude can influence the rest of the ED visit. The Opening Minds Scale for Health Care Workers (Modgill, Patten, Knaak, Kassam, & Szeto, 2014. “Opening Minds Stigma Scale for Health Care Providers (OMS-HC): Examination of Psychometric Properties and Responsiveness”) and the Caring Nurse Patient Interaction Short Form (Cossette, Cote, Pepin, Ricard, & D’Aoust, 2006. “A Dimensional Structure of Nurse-Patient Interactions from a Caring Perspective: Refinement of the Caring Nurse-Patient Interaction Scale (CNPI-Short Scale)”) were used to measure attitude towards stigma and the perception of the care a nurse gives a patient. Thirty-four nurses from two emergency departments participated in the research with the expectation of there being high levels of stigma which would in turn affect the care given to the patients with mental illness. Descriptive statistics, multiple regression and ANOVA were used to find low to moderate levels of stigma of mental illness, and these nurses had a perception of providing excellent care to their patients. This is in contrast to other studies finding moderate to high levels of stigma in general among health care professionals. This information can be useful in exploring and then using any policies and procedures present in the research sites for the benefit of other emergency departments. Additional research is planned to further review these sites and other emergency departments within the hospital network to ascertain if these results hold true, and if so, identify the dynamics involved.

Abstract:
Large numbers of individuals utilize the ER each year for mental health reasons. The health home agency in this study was designed under the Affordable Care Act with the intention of increasing patient self-management thus decreasing high-cost service utilization. The effectiveness of health homes in reducing mental health-related ER visits has remained unexplored. In this study, the relationship between participation in this program and ER utilization was examined, using the theoretical framework of the Health Belief Model. The sample of 128 health home participants with documented mental health conditions was selected using systematic random sampling. A one-way, repeated-measures t-test and a one-way, repeated-measures ANCOVA were used to analyze hospital records for ER visits with a primary or secondary mental health diagnosis. The results indicated that health home participation did not have a statistically significant impact on ER utilization when comparing overall 12-month means or at quarterly anniversary dates when controlling for age, race, and gender. These findings suggested opportunities for improvement in professional practice, identified areas that require further research, and will be used to initiate discussion into the existing and potential value that health homes offer to the mental health clientele being served. Those discussions have the potential to create social change through infrastructure changes that lead to improved service coordination, increased resources for improving access and quality of care, and overall enhancement of outcomes for individuals with mental health conditions.

Abstract:
The Mental Health Emergency Care-Rural Access Program (MHEC-RAP) aims to improve access, safety, and service coordination of specialist emergency mental health care via telehealth technologies. The program was planned and developed in response to the population needs and unique geographic conditions to provide specialist care while maintaining and supporting the role of existing local services. It is the first to provide 24-hour access to a regionally-based team of specialists offering relevant and responsive information, support, and clinical services for all providers, patients, and residents needing emergency care from the rural and remote communities across western New South Wales (NSW), Australia. This evaluation of MHEC-RAP applied a case study methodology and the theory of access to determine whether the program provides accessible specialist emergency mental health care. The five individual studies reported here contribute to the evaluation aims of describing program activity, assessing the provision and experience of emergency mental health care through MHEC-RAP, examining program impact on access, and informing further program development, adaptation, and transferability. This evaluation is the first to examine emergency telepsychiatry use in EDs, to apply the time and motion study method to assess program efficiency, and to present a telepsychiatry model structure that may be adapted or implemented elsewhere. This evaluation offers evidence of a practical telepsychiatry program that is providing accessible emergency mental health care for consumers in communities across western NSW and is changing local practice and perspective. It also enhances the theory of access proposing a modification to the theory with the inclusion of a sixth concept - awareness. The individual study results can be used to guide the continuing development of MHEC-RAP as well as provide insights for program transferability or the development, delivery, and evaluation of other new and existing telepsychiatry services across Australia and abroad.

Abstract:
This dissertation addresses some of the gaps in the research on pediatric mental health (MH) repeat visits to the emergency department (ED). The primary objectives of this thesis are to systematically review the existing literature on youth MH return visits to the ED and to determine the incremental contribution of family factors in predicting these repeat ED visits. The first study systematically reviewed and qualitatively summarized the available literature to better understand predictor of repeat visits. A search was performed using the following databases: PsycINFO, PubMed, and CINAHL. Reporting followed the PRISMA statement checklist and methodological quality was assessed using the following eight criteria: design, generalizability, breadth of predictors, reporting of effect sizes, additional outcomes, interaction terms, confounding variables, and clear definition of outcome. A total of 178 articles were retrieved; 11 articles met inclusion criteria. Findings revealed that repeat visits to the ED for MH concerns is a complex phenomenon that can be attributed to various demographic, clinical, and MH care access and utilization factors. Common predictors associated with repeat ED MH visits included socioeconomic status, involvement with child protective services, as well as previous and current MH service use. For studies using a six-month repeat window, the most common factors were previous psychiatric hospitalization and currently receiving MH services. This systematic review concluded that in order to further elucidate which variables are most significantly associated with repeat ED visits; future research should consider the use of prospective designs and the inclusion of family factors. Investigating recency and frequency outcomes may also be of importance. The second study aimed to determine if family characteristics are significantly associated with repeat ED visits over and above the contribution of demographic, clinical or service utilization factors. A retrospective cohort study of youth aged six to18 years treated at a tertiary pediatric ED for a discharge diagnosis related to MH was conducted. Data were gathered from medical records, telephone interviews, and questionnaires. Of 266 participants, 70 (26%) had a repeat visit. Receiving MH services within six-months of the index visit, having a parent with a history of treatment for MH concerns, higher severity of symptoms and living closer to the hospital were significantly associated with repeat visits as well as earlier and more frequent repeat visits. Prior psychiatric hospitalization was associated with repeat visits and more frequent repeat visits, while presenting with suicidality was associated with more frequent repeat visits. Family functioning and perceived family burden were not associated with repeat ED visits. This thesis contributes to the growing literature on ED use in pediatric patients with mental illnesses and may be clinically useful to professionals working with repeat visitors. The identification of key factors could provide essential information to ED decision-makers and lead to the development of best practices with this population.

Abstract:
With the increasing amount of police calls involving persons experiencing a mental health crisis (PICs), agencies are looking for ways to reduce the overuse of emergency services and criminal confinement. Police-mental health collaborative (PMHC) programs were developed to utilize the expertise of both mental health and law enforcement practitioners to provide immediate linkage to psychiatric services in an effort to prevent unnecessary involvement in the criminal justice system. The theoretical framework for this study was built on the sequential intercept model (SIM) along with the theories of social network and social support. The SIM identifies 5 key points where PICs can be diverted away from the criminal justice system. PMHC programs fall within the first intercept where persons with mental illness can be diverted at their first initial contact with law enforcement. Limited empirical research exists that show PMHC programs are reaching their intended objectives. The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine the effect of PMHC services on the likelihood that PICs will have future mental health calls (MHCs), arrests, and emergency hospitalizations (EHPs). Archival data from 1 midwestern police agency and online public court records was used in the analysis. The study employed OLS and logistic regression techniques, which revealed no statistically significant relationships between the PMHC interventions and the likelihood of future MHCs, arrests, and EHPs. However, significance was achieved for several covariates including transient status, prior history of MHCs, arrests, and EHPs. These findings will contribute to positive social change by informing policymakers and practitioners on best practices in community mental health crisis response.

This mixed methods study was designed to review the health of ambulance operational personnel and to better understand the complex relationship between the organisation of the work and the working and organisational environment in which the work is done. The study found that the physical and mental health of ambulance operational personnel is worse than the Australian population due to the interplay of long working hours, shift work and a perceived lack of support. Ambulance services need to take a lead role in designing health support approaches that may better protect the health and wellbeing of ambulance operational personnel.

Abstract:
Anxiety is a diffuse fear of an object, rather potential than present, it is detached from concrete and projected in the future. It associates psychomotor restlessness and has neurovegetative response. Anxious symptoms create a discomfort that patients experience with great difficulty. Whether we are talking about generalized anxiety, or we are talking about anxious paroxysms, patients call for help, sometimes in Emergency Room (ER) because of irrational fear of death, or fear of madness. The anxiety disorder is common in all medical healthcare offices, but especially in psychiatry. The therapeutic attitude is based on the same principles everywhere, but there are situations in which the treatment differs and psychotic anxiety, the particular form requiring admission into specialized service, is under discussion here. If in the past, the first intention was benzodiazepine (BZD) anxiolytics at the moment, they are increasingly finding their place in the therapeutic scheme. The beneficial effect installs quickly, but when balancing the balance versus risk, balances often tend to overcome the anxiolytic classics. Nowadays, more frequently, protocols recommend administering SSRI antidepressants to treat anxiety. In the case of emergency in which anxiety occupies a main place, such as psychotic anxiety, it is necessary to prescribe antipsychotics, especially atypical antipsychotics. For these reasons, we aim to share our experience for patient benefit.

Abstract:
High levels of hospitalisations during the first year of covid-19 epidemic demanded a swift adjustment of the health system. This resulted in temporary reallocations of healthcare workers to different tasks, limiting or temporarily suspending certain health services and programs, including mental health services, despite an increase in mental health difficulties during the epidemic. The aim of the present study was to explore the level of accessibility of mental health services, in 2020, during the covid-19 epidemic and how was the accessibility of mental health services influenced by the reallocations of healthcare workers to different tasks. An online survey was forwarded to all health institutions within the Slovenian public health system that provide mental health services. The results indicated the lowest accessibility to mental health services during the spring lockdown in 2020, while at the same period the prevalence of reallocations of the healthcare workers was at its highest. Present results also show that lower accessibility to mental health services was present where the levels of reallocations of healthcare workers was high. Implications for management of mental health services in emergency situations like covid-19 epidemic are made.

Abstract:
Background: Shift work is essential for many occupations like in the Emergency Medical Service that provides critical services that must be available all hours as a result of the irregularly day and night nature work (e.g., 9 p.m to 7:30 am ) with long-duration shifts (e.g., 24h and 48h) they could end up with a higher risk of disturbances in hemodynamic status which is contributed to (shock, heart failure, pressure changes, Sleep deficiency) along with mental health issue Objective: we aim to compare the blood pressure, heart rate, and O2 saturation and investigate the effect of demographic that includes (BMI, age, sex, educational level, mental status, memory, and decision-making ability. ) symptoms, and substance consumption (including caffeine, tea, energy drink, alcohol, smoking, multi-vitamin ..etc) between two group night shift and day shift Method: this study will be conducted in private hospitals and public hospitals in Jordan (Amman and Irbid ) and its design is a cross-sectional observational where adult health care providers will be invited to participate in completing an interviewer administration questionnaire Results: the high percentage of night medical workers faced a problem in many aspects including sleep disturbances, higher pressure, high caffeine intake, low focus, and decision-making ability along with social and family issues and mental health disturbances Conclusion: so we could conclude that medical night Shift work is associated with impaired alertness and low efficacy due to sleep loss and circadian disturbances so the performance remains mainly impaired during night shifts and the ability to focus and solve the problem and memorize information become lower with time In the end, we hope that medical institutions and hospitals would care more about the working environment not only the physical side but also mental health which should be put under the consideration Keywords: hemodynamic status, night shift, mental health, cardiovascular disease, social life

Full text
Abstract:
Compared to parents of healthy children, parents of severely or chronically ill children have significantly worse physical and mental health and a lower quality of life, e.g. because of lack of sleep. The proposed solution aims at assisting caregivers by means of a remote monitoring service run by professional nursing staff which should allow parents to get a good night’s sleep. A smart algorithm has been developed to detect if a particular parameter (heart rate, respiration rate or oxygen saturation) has exceeded a pre-defined threshold and thus may imply an emergency. Parents are only alerted after a professional nurse in the monitoring centre has cross-checked vital parameter trends and carried out an audio-visual inspection. The quality and accuracy of the system has been validated through iterative testing including a test performed in a children’s hospital to ensure that the monitoring system is not inferior to a hospital set-up.

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:
Key Points Publicly supported family planning clinics play a crucial role in the health care system, providing essential contraceptive services to millions of people every year. These safety-net clinics have faced several obstacles since 2015, such as the Title X domestic gag rule, the COVID-19 pandemic and the overturning of Roe v. Wade. The proportion of clinics offering a wide range of contraceptive services on-site has remained relatively stable since 2015. However, provision of implants has increased, while the number of clinics offering fertility awareness–based methods and emergency contraceptive pills has decreased. The use of telemedicine to dispense oral contraceptive pills rose dramatically from 2015 to 2022–2023, likely driven by an increased use of telemedicine that began during the COVID-19 pandemic. The use of several protocols that support patient access to contraceptives has increased, including prescribing at least 12 months of oral contraceptive pills at the initial visit, offering both pills and refills on-site, dispensing oral contraceptive pills using the Quick Start protocol and offering advanced provision of emergency contraception, especially among Planned Parenthood clinics. The availability of general health and other sexual and reproductive health services in these clinics has also remained largely stable, although availability of HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis and mental health screening has increased notably since 2015.

Conteh, Abu. SSHAP West Africa Hub: Addressing the Kush Epidemic in Sierra Leone. Institute of Development Studies, November 2024. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/sshap.2024.060.

Full text
Abstract:
Sierra Leone has seen a sharp rise in the use of ‘kush’ – a relatively new drug formed through mixing several constituent drugs, including opioids, which is proving highly addictive and is having serious negative health and social consequences. In April 2024, the government declared a public health emergency resulting from high levels of kush use, with security services launching crackdowns.1 Limited data on kush use presents challenges to understanding the scale of the problem. The lack of evidence has hampered the government’s response to the kush crisis. This has contributed to a misunderstanding of the problem and a response that has negatively impacted those people using the drug. The composition of kush is similarly unclear; it is described as a combination of cannabis, fentanyl, tramadol,2 formaldehyde,3 disinfectants4 and – according to some media reports – ground human bones.3,5 Tests by the Global Initiative against Transnational Organized Crime6 found that the drug contains synthetic cannabinoids and nitazenes.6 Youth are thought to be major consumers of the drug.4 The response to this emergency has been primarily punitive with dealers and addicts being arrested by security forces and placed in detention centres or rudimentary mental health facilities.7–9 This brief contextualises and provides insight into the ongoing kush epidemic. While kush use in Sierra Leone has reached crisis levels – requiring urgent action – it is symptomatic of deeper, long-standing issues of poverty, unemployment and limited opportunities for youth. These issues require sustained and comprehensive solutions beyond immediate emergency measures. This brief draws on academic and grey literature as well as consultations with practitioners working with regulatory authorities in Sierra Leone. There is currently little research on kush use in Sierra Leone, especially on the perspectives of users and the circumstances of their use. Due to the lack of social science evidence that articulates the drivers of substance use in Sierra Leone, what is presented in this brief is an attempt to identify factors likely to be shaping the epidemic and is thus speculative in nature. Ultimately, this brief aims to catalyse a dialogue that supports more effective responses to the crisis, including a multidisciplinary response to the epidemic and harm reduction approaches that focus on mitigating the dangers associated with drug use.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: What are the medium and long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on practitioners and organisations providing social work and social care to adults in the UK? Rationale: The pandemic has exerted adverse effects on staff morale and well-being, with sickness absence rises across the sector and increased difficulties in recruiting staff from agencies, despite a pre-COVID government recruitment campaign (https://www.gov.uk/government/news/adult-social-care-recruitment-care-campaign-launched-to-boost-workforce). Care home providers report extreme anxiety and distress, burnout and financial concerns (CQC, 2020). These worsened during the proposed introduction of mandatory vaccination care home workers (Bell et al. 2021). Social care workers report a lack of support in terms of training and equipment, sleep disturbances and increasing levels of mental ill health (Pappa et al. 2020; Williamson et al. 2020; Donnelly et al. 2021). They also report experiencing conflicts in terms of caring for people with diverse needs (Greenberg et al. 2020). Some research suggests that workers experienced professional growth during the pandemic, but that this came at a cost to their own mental health (Billings et al. 2021). Other research reported increased team unity and more reflection on what mattered in life (Aughterson et al. 2021). One editorial claims that the pandemic created a reduction of bureaucracy and the emergence of more efficient ways of working in social care in Local Authorities (Golightley & Holloway 2020). The evidence appears conflicting and frequently fails to separate health care and social care work, when the roles and structures of service delivery organisations are different. There is also a lack of differentiation in reporting on effects on the social care workforce in general, and specifically social workers and statutory social work.
