Advocating for a better mental healthcare system in New Hampshire. Clearing hurdles for people on their road to recovery -- NOW on New Hampshire Outlook. |
| Hello Intro Mental Return to index of stories... |
Hello. I'm Beth Carroll. Welcome to NH Outlook. The National Institute of Mental Health estimates nearly 60 million Americans live with mental illness. As for the nation's mental healthcare system-- its been described as being in "a state of shambles." In a recent state-by-state mental health care analysis, New Hampshire did not do well. The Granite State received a "D" in the National Alliance on Mental Illness report. In a similar survey 16 years ago NH had been a front runner in the mental health field. In a moment, we'll explore some of the reasons for the grade and look at ways of making improvements. But first, Outlook's Phil Vaughn brings us a story about a family from Manchester -- struggling on their own road to recovery. |

The state's shortage of "child" psychiatrists takes a toll on young people, their parents and their doctors. It's not much better when it comes to adult services. Mental health workers in NH.can't keep up with the demand. Here to talk about some potential solutions: Claudia Ferber, the Child and Family Services Coordinator for the NH chapter of the National Alliance for Mental Illness. Michael Coughlin, the Executive Director of Genesis Behavioral Health in Laconia; Katherine Davis, Program Director of Peer Support for Cornerbridge in Concord; and Dan Bailey, co-chair of NH's Adult Mental Health Planning Council. Welcome to all of you. Q We just heard that NH got a D when it comes to its Mental Health Care system. CLAUDIA: Why such a dismal grade??? Q MICHAEL: How many in NH are in need of Mental Health services but not getting it?? What are their OPTIONS ? go to primary care doctor??? Q DAN: Is there still a STIGMA associated with Mental Illness? How do you OVERCOME that? ** * Recovery vs staying out of the hospital is the current mission --took a long time to shift the focus. Recovery: people take control of their own recovery. Q KATHERINE: NH did get commended for its PEER support agencies that deal with mental health. How do peer support groups work? ** Can help other families NAVIGATE the system. Q MICHAEL: Tele-Psychiatry has been touted as a potential solution to the psychiataric shortage -- I understand that's happening in LACONIA? How does it work?? Q Does Tele-Psychiatry have the support of the medical community?? Q Do you lose anything by not being Face-to-face with your doctor?? Q CLAUDIA: In some states FED GOVT providing money to train pediatricians & primary care doctors how to treat Children's mental illnesses -- since not enuf child psychiatrists to do it. Is it a good thing??? WILL THAT HELP the shortage?? Q DAN/ KATHERINE: What are other states doing that we're NOT doing to deal with treatment amid the shortage?? any models elsewhere??? Q MICHAEL: Why so few CHILD psychiatrists??? what's the PROBLEM??? Q Psychiatrists don't accept insurance? Q KATHERINE/ CLAUDIA: What is possible in NH when it comes to treatment for Mental Health?? Q DAN/MICHAEL: Are Community Mental Health Services absorbing the burden of the shortage of PSYCHIATARIC care -- how strapped are they?? Q DAN/MICHAEL: YOu have long waiting lists for child psychiatrists -- where do people turn if NOT there Emergency Rooms?? ======================================== Q All: What needs to change??? Q If you had the ear of those in a position to help solve the shortage - what would you say??? CLAUDIA FERBER MICHAEL COUGHLIN KATHERINE DAVIS DAN BAILEY |
