Community Based Intervention01:30

Community Based Intervention

269
Community-based interventions in mental health represent a paradigm shift from institution-centered care to treatments embedded within the fabric of local communities. By prioritizing inclusion and leveraging existing societal structures, this approach fosters a supportive environment conducive to addressing mental health challenges while promoting individual dignity and agency.

Drug Dependence

Medications are typically administered to achieve therapeutic effects. Some drugs can modify an individual's mood and perception, frequently resulting in various enjoyable experiences. However, this can result in drug dependency, a condition marked by continuous drug use despite potential negative consequences. Drug dependency primarily falls into two categories: psychological and physical dependence. Psychological dependence occurs when the pleasurable feelings induced by the drug...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention II

2.0K
The person's health status fluctuates continually, varying from being in good health to becoming ill and returning to being healthy. To understand the concept of illness prevention, there are two models. First, the health-illness continuum model is a graphic representation of an individual's wellness. It states that a person is considered healthy in the absence of physical disease and the presence of good emotional health.
The agent-host-environment model states that disease results...

Substance use disorders involve a pattern of using drugs more extensively than intended and continuing use despite harmful consequences. This includes legal substances like alcohol and nicotine, as well as illegal drugs. These disorders often involve both physical and psychological dependence, reflecting compulsive use of substances that significantly alter thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, contributing to a major public health issue.
Understanding the concepts of physical dependence,...

Models of Health Promotion and Illness Prevention I

2.7K
A model is a theoretical way to understand a concept or an idea. Models can overcome barriers to health regardless of diverse economic and cultural backgrounds. In addition, models make the task easier by providing different ways to approach complex issues. There are two major health promotion models: the health belief model and the health promotion model.
The health belief model (HBM) attempts to predict health-related behavior in specific belief patterns. According to the HBM, a person's...

Stratified Sampling Method01:16

Stratified Sampling Method

14.5K
Sampling is a technique to select a portion (or subset) of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain information about the population. The sampling method ensures that samples are drawn without bias and accurately represent the population. Because measuring the entire population in a study is not practical, researchers use samples to represent the population of interest.
To choose a stratified sample, divide the population into groups called strata and then take a...

Area of Science:

  • Social Sciences
  • Public Health
  • Community Psychology

Background:

  • People Who Use Substances (PWUS) face significant societal stigma, impacting wellbeing and access to services.
  • Stigma can be used to justify exclusion by policymakers and services, leading to underutilization of available drug and alcohol support.
  • Community Asset Mapping (CAM) is a strengths-based research approach to identify community resources and strengths.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To utilize Community Asset Mapping (CAM) principles to identify recovery resources within a large city.
  • To engage people with lived experience of substance use and practitioners in identifying existing and unknown support services and groups.
  • To understand the dynamics of the local recovery community and barriers to engagement.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study employing Community Asset Mapping (CAM) processes in Northeast England.
  • Data collection through semi-structured interviews (n=13) and focus groups (n=2).
  • Reflexive thematic analysis of transcribed qualitative data.

Main Results:

  • A partially fragmented but well-resourced local recovery community was identified.
  • Previously unknown recovery groups and services were discovered by the existing recovery network.
  • Public and societal stigma related to substance use was confirmed as a barrier to visibility and accessibility.

Conclusions:

  • Despite fragmentation, a connected and resourced recovery community exists.
  • CAM successfully identified previously unknown support systems for individuals with substance use issues.
  • Addressing public stigma is crucial for enhancing the visibility and reach of recovery support services.
