Strategies for living with the new normal
It will be addressed from the shared perspective of mental health network professionals, people with first-person experience, and their families.
If you are a mental health professional, if you are a person with first-person experience, if you are a family member or support network member, or if you belong to the mental health association sector.
The current health crisis is posing a stress test for healthcare professionals and also for users of its services, including people in the mental health network, those affected by a mental disorder, and their families and support network.
Both healthcare professionals and service users have had to redefine their relationship at times due to the lockdown. New types of connections and ways of interacting have emerged to ensure care, with telemedicine playing a prominent role.
The network of support groups for people with lived experience of mental health issues and their families has also adapted during the toughest phases of lockdown to continue offering mutual and peer support at a time when it was perhaps more necessary than ever. Social media, video calls, and the internet have also proven very useful in maintaining connections within the mental health activism community.
What is here to stay? What has proven useful and could become part of new care models? And conversely, how can the system be improved? The current uncertainty warrants reflection on these and other issues related to the most efficient and highly valued care model, given the likely long duration of the global pandemic.
