The provision of mental/behavioral health services for children and adolescents in the primary care setting is a volatile issue. This is one of several findings from an educational needs assessment of rural primary care providers focused on kid/teen mental/behavioral health. The session will briefly examine the high costs to families and the Commonwealth due to limited access to mental/behavioral health care as well as:
The process and scope of the educational needs assessment
Assessment outcomes—what providers see as their learning/educational needs
Strategies with potential to meet provider educational needs.
This program is a result of a Virginia Department of Health RFP which allowed four Area Health Education Centers to focus on provider learning needs. Session attendees will be encouraged to participate and contribute their ideas during the session.

Children with health complexity face unique medical and social factors that impact their health and engagement of health care services. Health systems play an important role in addressing both factors to build health and resilience. Speakers will share their approach to using system and practice-level data to better identify appropriate care coordination and health management supports for these children. We will also spotlight how this approach was implemented in Kaiser Permanente Northwest through the Pediatric Care Together complex health management program.

Family-based programmes for preventing smoking by children and adolescents: W...Health Evidence™
Health Evidence hosted a 60 minute webinar examining whether family interventions can influence children and adolescents not to smoke. Roger Thomas, Professor, Faculty of Medicine, University of Calgary, led the session, and presented findings from his latest Cochrane review:
Thomas, R.E., Baker, P.R.A., Thomas, B.C., & Lorenzetti, D. (2015). Family-based programmes for preventing smoking by children and adolescents. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2015(2), Art. No. CD004493.
Preventing children from starting to smoke is important to avoid a lifetime of addiction, poor health, and social and economic consequences. Family members influence whether children and adolescents smoke. This review includes 27 trials (23 in US, one each in Australia, India, the Netherlands, and Norway). There is moderate quality evidence that family-based interventions can prevent children and adolescents from starting to smoke. Intensive programs may be more likely to be successful than those of lower intensity. There is also evidence to suggest that adding a family-based component to a school intervention may be effective.

This study outlines pilot evaluation data of the web-based training
resource ‘Keeping Families and Children in Mind’, designed for clini-
cians who work with families where a parent has a mental illness. The
resource was developed from scoping existing workforce packages
and in consultation with consumers, carers, researchers and mental-
health clinicians. Preliminary evaluation data were collected from an
urban and a rural site in Australia via focus group interviews and pre-
and post-training questionnaires to ascertain the experiences of those
who participated in the training. Additionally, training facilitators
were invited to maintain journals in order to identify planning and
implementation issues when using the resource. Post-training, partici-
pants emphasized the need to work collaboratively with others, as
well as the importance of acknowledging and working with the family
members of consumers, especially children. Also, participants
reported positive changes in knowledge, skill and confidence when
working with families affected by parental mental illness. Facilitators
highlighted technology issues and the need to work interactively with
participants when using the resource. Recommendations regarding
policy and future research conclude this paper.

Mental illness is a family affair, particularly where a
parent, with dependent children, has a mental illness.
Several studies indicate that children where a parent
has a mental illness may be at twice the risk of devel-
oping a mental illness diagnosis compared to other
children (Black et al. 2003; Park et al. 2003; Cunning-
ham et al. 2004; Leschied et al. 2005; Edwards et al.
2006). Other studies highlight the range of behav-
ioural, interpersonal, academic and other difficulties
that children of parents with a mental illness might
face (Rutter & Quinton 1984; Farahati et al. 2003;
Maughan et al. 2007; Reupert & Maybery 2007). An
epidemiological study has estimated that between 21

Transforming Care: Share and Learn Webinar – 29 March 2018NHS England
Topic One: "The ERIN Initiative"
Guest speakers: Susan Holloway, NHS Chorley & South Ribble CCG and NHS Greater Preston CCG and Sheila Roberts, Lancashire Care NHS Foundation Trust
The aim of "The ERIN (Education, Resources, Interventions and Networking) Initiative" is to provide a local, accessible, responsive, early assessment and intervention service for children aged 0-5 years who may be placed on the pre-school Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) pathway.
This webinar reports on the progress made during a pilot which commenced on 1st October 2017 to implement a service which deals with complex/challenging behaviors of children who may or may not go on to have a diagnosis with autism.
Topic Two: An introduction and brief overview of the Source4Networks platform
Session led by Rob Cockburn, Sustainable Improvement Team, NHS England
This topic provides an introduction and brief overview of the Source4Networks platform and its potential to support the Transforming Care Programme.
Increased attention to children with medical complexity has occurred because these children are growing in number, consume a disproportionate share of health-system costs, and require policy and programmatic interventions that differ in many ways from the broader group of children with special health care needs. But will this focus on complex care lead to meaningful changes in systems of care and outcomes for children with serious chronic diseases?
In view of the ongoing discussion of a new Special Needs Strategy for the Province of Ontario, the physicians of PONDA Network (Physicians of Ontario Neurodevelopmental Advocacy Network) have elaborated these points of recommendation based on their experience with the struggles and barriers families with children with special needs encounter.
A presentation given by Prof. Phil Robinson at The Journey, CHA Conference 2012, in the 'Innovations in Mental Health Care for Children and Young People' stream.
1. Inside the P20 TelehealthReesearch Lab With your Host: Jeff Reese, Ph.D. Next Generation Learning Summit September 7, 2010
2. Today’s Goals:1. Provide rationale for need of increased psychosocial services for children & families2. Address why telehealth is a viable tool to address this concern 3. Discuss current Telehealth Lab projects and collaborative possibilities
3. 1. Rationale for Lab Goal: Improve access to specialized psychosocial services for children and families in rural and remote areas of Kentucky using telehealth technologies. Why?: Children and families in Kentucky are vastly underserved – 75% of children dx w/ developmental, behavioral, or emotional problems are not receiving the appropriate services in their schools or communities (KY DOE, 2006-2007)
4. 1. Rationale for Lab 1 in 5 children will struggle w/ a mental health concern during their education (Surgeon General, 1999) . 50% of adolescent students with a mental health condition fail to complete high school 70% of youth involved in state and local juvenile justice systems suffer from mental health conditions
5. 1. Rationale for Lab Kentucky recently ranked 42nd out of 50 states on a measure of child wellbeing (Casey Foundation, 2008). According to the 2003 National Survey of Children’s Health, the reported prevalence of AD/HD in the state of Kentucky was 10.12%, the third-highest rate in the nation
7. Why Telehealth? Reduces barriers of geography and accessibility Takes advantage of existing KTHN Statewide videoconference consortium of over 1,000 sites, including 45 of state’s 120 county school systems Can assist with long waiting-lists for child psychiatrists
8. Why Telehealth? It is an acceptable alternative to in-person contact: - adult individual therapy (Reese, Conoley, & Brossart, 2002) - family therapy (Glueckauf et al., 2002) - child-based interventions (Nelson, Barnard, & Cain, 2006)
9. Why Telehealth? Parents prefer interventions that have a psychosocial component (Antshel & Barkley, 2008)
10. A Possible Win/Win? Psychology doctoral students could provide supervised services Costs would be minimal – goal is to obtain external funding Result is that children and families benefit and so do our doctoral students!
11. Current Telehealth Project Kentucky TeleCare (College of Medicine) Dept. of Pediatrics (College of Medicine) Counseling Psychology (College of Education) AT&T Foundation Grant: Using Telehealth to Reach Underserved Populations: A Behavioral Family Intervention for Parents of Children with ADHD
12. Parent training program based on behavioral family interventions grounded in social learning theory Evidence-based method that has an excellent track record as an intervention for children with behavioral issues Has a modified telehealth application
13. Current Status of Project Have had 1 round of sessions in Morehead with 3 families, feedback has been very positive Currently conducting intakes for group starting in mid-September Getting the “word out” in rural communities via primary care physicians, a radio show, school nurses, schools, and other health care providers in the identified area
14. Next Steps… Plan is to use pilot data for further funding to expand program Looking to partner with other medical centers and schools before submitting NIH R21 grant Hope to expand lab to include other intervention-based services, consultation, and training (e.g., Autism)
