ESCAP 2015 - Jolanda van der Meer: workshop stigmaUtrecht
The document discusses destigmatization of mental illness. It outlines initiatives in several countries to fight stigma through programs like Time to Change in the UK and Say No to Stigma in Australia. It also discusses research insights on stigma, such as the idea that stigma's origins may not be related only to knowledge, attitudes, and behavior, but also cultural differences and existing on individual, interpersonal, and structural levels. The document challenges paradigms around preventing and reducing stigma and argues that the goals should be improved quality of life and reducing social inequities. It suggests partnerships within local communities and learning from patients' experiences can help in the fight against stigma.

Edge of Amazing: Breakout Session A - Improving youth mental health by reduci...PIHCSnohomish
YouthNet RéseauAdo offers a wide range of mental health services to youth aged 13 to 20 in Ottawa, including presentations, discussion groups, information booths, 8-10 week intervention programs, individual bridging counselling, safeTALK training, and student wellness committees. The programs aim to promote mental health literacy, build resilience, and reduce stigma. They are informed and overseen by a Youth Advisory Committee. YouthNet collects data to advocate for youth and conducts research to evaluate its programs. The goal is to start conversations around mental health and teach youth strategies through engaging activities.
OBJECTIVES:
Demonstrate, Recognize, Define & Identify what we mean by “AGING”
Identify special considerations for this population including :
Substance Abuse (Alcohol & Opioids) Mental Health (Depression & Anxiety), Grief and Loss,( loss of a loved one or function) , Suicide
Other Physical Maladies -Chronic Pain-Knees, Hips, Shoulders , (Heart Diabetes, Hypertension, Cataracts, Glaucoma , Dementia, Alzheimers
Problematic Gambling, Financial Issues
As a seasoned interventionist, I’ve seen clients from both sides of the mental illness/substance abuse spectrum as well as clients with an avalanche of additional problems that I describe as the TRIPLE THREAT, those who suffer from a tertiary issue either as a result of a prior condition (i.e. disorder or illness) or that one that is exacerbated by additional factors (i.e. physical, legal, traumatic, etc.). These folks and their families present a diagnostic quandary with their kaleidoscope of competing and equally important issues.
With the ongoing opioid epidemic, availability or marijuana and other drugs addiction has become a problem with no class lines. The story of pain medication following surgery leading to opioid addiction and heroin is everywhere.
As Executive Protection you may not of thought of this as part of your job description , and you are in a unique position of Influence and Trust to identify and help intervene when the persons with problems are clients and their loved ones.

The document summarizes an evaluation of an early intervention outreach mental health clinic for young people experiencing homelessness. It finds that the clinic facilitated improved access to mental health services by providing assessments and brief interventions on-site at a youth homelessness service. The clinic adopted a youth-friendly approach and built connections with clients by meeting them in their living environment and addressing their fears about traditional mental health services. However, engaging with clients was challenging due to the high mobility and turnover of young people experiencing homelessness. The consistent presence of the clinic and its flexibility helped to create safety and trust with clients.

(2014) Bridging the Gap Between Mental Health and Education: The development ...Dr. Chiachen Cheng
The document discusses collaborations between mental health and education organizations in Ontario to increase awareness and understanding of psychosis. It describes four initiatives - developing multilingual infographics about psychosis, an online learning module for mental health professionals, contributing a chapter on psychosis to a school mental health guidebook, and hosting a webinar on psychosis for post-secondary institutions. Key lessons learned included the need for cultural and linguistic sensitivity in translations, competing stakeholder priorities, lack of awareness about psychosis, and the time required to coordinate multiple organizations.
This document discusses promoting mental health through positive psychology approaches. It defines mental health as more than just the absence of mental illness, involving flourishing with positive emotions, quality relationships, purpose and growth. Research shows flourishing is linked to better physical health and longevity. Brief interventions are suggested to increase positive emotions, meaning, flow and relationships. These include expressing gratitude, using signature strengths, and focusing on past, present and future sources of well-being.

This document discusses measuring the impact of women in leadership positions in India. It presents a theory of change where reservations for women in local government lead to more female leaders whose preferences and priorities differ from male leaders. Data is presented measuring each step of this theory, including administrative data on reservations, transcripts from village meetings on issues raised by men and women, and village surveys measuring public investments in areas preferred by women, like drinking water and education. The results show reservations significantly increase female leadership and that areas with more women leaders invest relatively more in issues preferred by women. This supports the hypothesis that putting more women in power can impact public spending priorities.

A guide to suicide sceening for non clinician staff on campusDave Wilson
A guide to suicide screening for non-clinician staff provides information about:
- Understanding suicide myths and facts as well as prevalence data
- Risk and protective factors for suicide
- Using the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) to screen for suicide risk by asking questions about ideation and behavior
- Taking appropriate actions based on the screening such as signposting to support services for low risk, contacting emergency services for very high risk, or contacting mental health services for high risk
Is there a 'best' approach to evaluating work with sexually exploited children?BASPCAN
This document discusses the challenges of evaluating interventions for sexually exploited children given the complex nature of the issue. It notes there is little existing evidence on effective preventative or protective services for child sexual exploitation. The lives of victims are chaotic and each case differs. The document proposes a compromise evaluation approach for a UK organization working with sexually exploited youth across multiple service centers. Outcome measures would be integrated into practice to evaluate well-being, trauma symptoms, and risk over time. Quantitative data collection faces challenges around consent, timely measure completion, and follow up. Qualitative research would further understand pathways into abuse and the types of help that make a difference. The evaluation seeks to better understand practice through data and inform practice through evaluation findings to develop a

Protective factors after hiv diagnosis by Mi Echanis MelgarHidzuan Hashim
This study examined protective factors that prevent people living with HIV (PLHIV) in the Philippines from committing suicide. The study found that strong faith in God and support from family and peers were the primary protective factors. PLHIV reported adaptive beliefs, rational assessments of their resources, and constructive coping strategies. They had high technology access and moderately high access to peer counseling and antiretroviral treatment. While relationships, purpose, and being loved helped PLHIV want to live, stigma about HIV remained a challenge. The study recommends further research on suicide risk factors and preventive interventions for PLHIV.
Amplified Adolescent Anxiety During A PandemicCyndy McDonald
In normal times teenagers experience a great amount of stress and anxiety. This stress and anxiety has been amplified during the pandemic. One of the greatest contributors has been the uncertainty around standardized testing options. If students can't go to school, how are they supposed to go take an exam?
This document discusses the challenges of detecting suicidal callers in text-based youth helplines. Youth helplines have a general mission and helpers receive limited suicide risk assessment training. Text-based communication also lacks non-verbal cues. A study analyzed over 2,800 youths contacting a Quebec youth helpline, finding 42% reported past-year suicidal ideation and 21% reported suicide attempts. The study aims to estimate the proportion of suicidal youths, those mentioning suicidality, and interventions with risk assessments. Preliminary findings suggest suicidal ideation is often revealed by callers but risk is superficially explored in most interactions. The conclusion calls for better identifying suicidal youths and training helpers in text-based risk assessment.
This study examined the effectiveness of self-help materials. The researchers surveyed 175 individuals about their use of self-help resources like books, websites, and support groups in the past year. They found that internet sites were the most commonly used resource, followed by books. The majority of respondents reported that self-help materials helped improve problems, feelings of well-being, relationships, and work or school performance to some degree. While self-help is not a replacement for therapy, the study suggests it provides an effective alternative for the many people who do not seek formal treatment.

This document provides information about pursuing a career in psychiatric nursing. It recommends joining professional organizations like APNA to learn more. Volunteering in mental health settings can help students determine if they are interested in the field. Doing a rotation in a psychiatric unit introduces students to the specialty. The document also discusses credentialing options for psychiatric nurses and nurse practitioners. It notes some key differences in treating psychiatric patients, such as interventions focusing on managing behavior, as patients are usually not confined to beds.

Webinaire donné par Cécile Bardon, PhD, directrice associée du Centre de recherche et d'intervention sur le suicide, enjeux éthiques et pratiques de fin de vie (CRISE), le 9 avril 2021. Ce webinaire a été présenté par le Service québécois d'excellence en troubles graves du comportement (SQETGC).
Female spouses experience a process of preparing for the death of their terminally ill partner that is structured around four periods: diagnosis announcement, prognosis announcement, appearance of symptoms/decline in functioning, and intensification of symptoms until death. During each period, spouses confront the changing meaning and impacts of the illness, develop strategies to adjust, and mentally plan for the next transition. The process evolves from initial shock/hope at diagnosis to confronting mortality, taking on a caregiver role, and ultimately letting go as death approaches. Spouses attribute different meanings to their experiences in each period and think about both controlling end of life and envisioning their future alone.

NAVIGATING THE HORIZONS OF TIME LAPSE EMBRYO MONITORING.pdfRahul Sen
Time-lapse embryo monitoring is an advanced imaging technique used in IVF to continuously observe embryo development. It captures high-resolution images at regular intervals, allowing embryologists to select the most viable embryos for transfer based on detailed growth patterns. This technology enhances embryo selection, potentially increasing pregnancy success rates.

This guideline is directed principally toward new Molecular Entities that are
likely to have significant use in the elderly, either because the disease intended
to be treated is characteristically a disease of aging ( e.g., Alzheimer's disease) or
because the population to be treated is known to include substantial numbers of
geriatric patients (e.g., hypertension).
PGx Analysis in VarSeq: A User’s PerspectiveGolden Helix
Since our release of the PGx capabilities in VarSeq, we’ve had a few months to gather some insights from various use cases. Some users approach PGx workflows by means of array genotyping or what seems to be a growing trend of adding the star allele calling to the existing NGS pipeline for whole genome data. Luckily, both approaches are supported with the VarSeq software platform. The genotyping method being used will also dictate what the scope of the tertiary analysis will be. For example, are your PGx reports a standalone pipeline or would your lab’s goal be to handle a dual-purpose workflow and report on PGx + Diagnostic findings.
The purpose of this webcast is to:
Discuss and demonstrate the approaches with array and NGS genotyping methods for star allele calling to prep for downstream analysis.
Following genotyping, explore alternative tertiary workflow concepts in VarSeq to handle PGx reporting.
Moreover, we will include insights users will need to consider when validating their PGx workflow for all possible star alleles and options you have for automating your PGx analysis for large number of samples. Please join us for a session dedicated to the application of star allele genotyping and subsequent PGx workflows in our VarSeq software.

Are you looking for a long-lasting solution to your missing tooth?
Dental implants are the most common type of method for replacing the missing tooth. Unlike dentures or bridges, implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. In layman’s terms, a dental implant is similar to the natural root of the tooth. It offers a stable foundation for the artificial tooth giving it the look, feel, and function similar to the natural tooth.
Summer is a time for fun in the sun, but the heat and humidity can also wreak havoc on your skin. From itchy rashes to unwanted pigmentation, several skin conditions become more prevalent during these warmer months.

chemistry investigatory project
The development of nanogold-based cancer therapy could revolutionize oncology by providing a more targeted, less invasive treatment option. This project contributes to the growing body of research aimed at harnessing nanotechnology for medical applications, paving the way for future clinical trials and potential commercial applications.
Cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide, prompting the need for innovative treatment methods. Nanotechnology offers promising new approaches, including the use of gold nanoparticles (nanogold) for targeted cancer therapy. Nanogold particles possess unique physical and chemical properties that make them suitable for drug delivery, imaging, and photothermal therapy.

I discovered a new world through sharing
things I never thought I could. What makes
this possible is probably that your services
are anonymous. Very approachable and
easily accessible. At certain moments the
chats helped to pull me out of me
downward spiral, and helped me focus my
attention elsewhere.

35. Claire 21Claire 21
Being able to express what was bursting
inside of me: I can’t live like this and I want
to put an end to it! The fact that someone
is there in the midst of all my fear and
anguish via chat, mail and a forum. I find
that wonderful, even though it doesn’t
make the feeling of wanting to die go
away, it still allowed me to vent. Now
things are better, I am able to really FEEL.

I shall never forget that time in my life when I really
felt I didn’t want to go on. That was an intense
time for me. 113 offered me a place to express this
and lay it to rest. Now things are better I look back
on this time including 113 and it gives me
something to hold on to. And I see it as something
that no one else needs to know, due to the
anonymity. This way I don’t need to be reminded of
it by something or someone later on in the future
and it prevents me being branded for life.
CRISE - Summer Institute 2012 - Montréal
37. Adverse events
