Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 , I would definitely suggest Solihull Psychotherapeutic Approach - evidence based and really useful conceptual framework. As a practiced HV using behavioural modification and counsellor I found the Solihull a cohesive way of bringing the two together. Whils writing - could I ask if you would critique a draft of my research that I am preparing for possible publication? I have no experience of writing for publication and would value your opinion - especially as you were kind enough to read the full document and therefore know something of it.

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2002 Report Share Posted April 20, 2002 , Further thoughts on the topic - if the HVs have no behavioural modification training you might like to look at Solution Focussed Intervention - again another evidence-based package.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 and Ann, In our area the HVs, using Solihull + behaviour modification are regarded as therapeutic practitioners at Tiers 1 & 2 for CAMHS purposes and I am insisting that this is acknowledged within the systems. Further, a group of us who have been receiving monthly psychology support for some time are discussing with the CAMHS team that those patients who are Tiers 2/3 but waiting for CAMHS intervention should receive joint psychology/HV work - again I am pushing for HVs to be acknowledged as a provider of a much valued (by families and CAMHS team) secondary service at this level.

Guest guest Posted April 21, 2002 Report Share Posted April 21, 2002 Toity, It is interesting that the number of referrals to CAMHS has been falling in Bristol as in Bath we have a Single Point of Entry system and there has been a bolus of referrals from teachers with problem behaviour in small children (perhaps as a result HVs stopped using the 'Behavioural Check List' and follow up at the 3 year developmental assessment).

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2002 Report Share Posted July 24, 2002 Ros and others; I am just embarking, with colleagues, on trying to make a case that CAMHS/mental health service use (and thus waiting lists) could be reduced by the provision of a suitable health visiting service. Does anyone know of any specific research please? It would particularly useful if it could inform my ideas of what counts as 'suitable' in this context! lind Bennet wrote: > Dear Ruth, thanks for that,yes I am in touch with Barbara Marks.

The parent adviser service used health visitors and other health professionals to home visit clients with identified problems referred to the service. I am not sure if its quite what you want but you might find it useful. I think it might be helpful to email Hilton or ring him especially re the ideas discussed yesterday.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 Thanks . I know that paper and cite it often; I am sure I should re-read it to make sure I am not mis-quoting it! Having just checked there are a few others on the site that I have not read, so thanks for that. For others who are interested, this is the research that shows (amongst other things) that the key to identifying health needs does not lie in questioning, but in listening to what clients have to say. With encouragement, clients can also identify their own solutions.

Guest guest Posted July 25, 2002 Report Share Posted July 25, 2002 Thanks Ros; I will look that out. It just occurs to me to mention, in case anyone else is wondering about wanting to make changes that affect commissioning of services, that this is the time of year to engage colleagues, public health directors, children's service planners etc etc., because the annual spending round will be 'under discussion' in PCTs up and down the land. Once it gets to about November, decisions have usually been made, even though they are rarely finalised much before the middle of March for April. lind Bennet wrote: >, another thought, has does a huge body of work for >the Mental Health Foundation, 'Early Interventions to Enhance Young >Children's Mental Health, executive summery from www.mentalhealth.org.uk >full details from jbarnes@...

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2002 Report Share Posted July 26, 2002 , I am very interested in your work - here in cambridge a group of interested professionals from health visiting and mental health have set up CAMPIP - Cambridge Parent Infant Project looking at early interevention, all of us sharing the strong belief that a health visiting intervention could make a huge difference to CAMHS waiting lists not to mention long term outcomes for children and their families. We put on a conference in May which I missed because I was sunning myself in Scotland but there was, i believe a very interesting presentation from a project in Sunderland looking at this issue.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2002 Report Share Posted July 26, 2002 Dear - I presume you know about Jane Barlow's work - The Oxfordshire Home visiting study which is a randomised controlled trila of specific healht visiting interventions for vulnerable mothers identified at the antenatal booking clinic. All the health visitors delivering the intervention have been trained in the parent- Adviser model devised and advocated by Hilton Dacies and Crispin Day - they are doing all sorts of excting things over therre in Oxford!! p.s. I can't remember - are emotional and behavioural problems in children one of the areas of focus in this years CPHVA conference? Re: infant mental health Dear , Can I suggest that you look at the and Spurr paper on the Centre for Parent and Child Support website.

Guest guest Posted July 26, 2002 Report Share Posted July 26, 2002 Dear - I am embarking on getting to-gether some baseline measures of H.V and G.P experience of identifying and managing children with EBP as well as their experience of the referral pathway. I am also trying to collate some prevalence information to establish the size of the problem and how it relates to the predicted prevalence from the 1999 NOS survey on mental disorders in children aged 5 - 15. An early finding is that even though CAMHS services do have increasingly longer waiting lists, to indicate that they do not have the manpower to manage what they've got, that infact primary care practitioners have ceased to refer to CAMHS in many cases because of the length of the wating lists and because the referral criteria for CAMHS can be quite exclusive and the CAMHS service would not provide a service for the majority of families that practitioners in primary care want to refer, in the interests of early intervention, anyway!! I have run 3 focus groups with H.V's and now, to-gether with a primary mental health worker, we are looking at devising a questionnaire to elicit the relevant information from G.P's, H.V's. I have also been running a series of 8 day training programmes on early intervention based on the Solihull approach, for health visitors, and we are hoping to get the course permanently written into the education contract so that all newly qualified health visitors will be able to access it. We are very excited because we have just managed to get the funding to do the same sort of thing for postnatal depression training at APU. Thanks to the hard work and determination of a steering group, with Crome playing the key role as the inside man,and consultancy advice from Sheelah Seeley, we are going live in September with a 4 day training programme ( 3 days at APU and the fourth day out in the field) that will be available for all health visitors apponted to positions in Essex who have completetd their training in July. It's been a battle but I think it's been worth it!! Especially as this course will now be available every year for all newly qualified health visitors henceforth. I have also been on the Care Index training mentioned by many in connection with the Sunderland Sure Start programme and to-gether with a consultant child psychotherpaist and a specialist nurse we are looking at how we could use this technique in practice. Re: infant mental health , I am very interested in your work - here in cambridge a group of interested professionals from health visiting and mental health have set up CAMPIP - Cambridge Parent Infant Project looking at early interevention, all of us sharing the strong belief that a health visiting intervention could make a huge difference to CAMHS waiting lists not to mention long term outcomes for children and their families.

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2002 Report Share Posted July 30, 2002 I was part of a discussion a while ago with CAMHS and HVs re the effect of hv intervention on their referrals and a great debate ensued! Our conclusions were that it would be likely that the number of referrasl might increase but that these would be more appropriate referrals. As metioned ealier in ths email conversation, the referral ratre to CAMHS from hvs has been reducing in many areas due to long waiting lists etc. and therefore agreements between the 2 teams needed to ensure what was and what was not appropriate. In Bristol, when I was helping to implement the training for the Solihull Approach there was going to be a 1 point referral system for all referrals and there was a plan that the speech therapists etc, for whom the referrals were for, would have been informed of the level and nature of the intervention that the families/children would have received when seen by a hv who had been trained in the Solihull Approach. Whilst I think that the SA appears to work well and is popular with hvs we need to be aware that it has not been evaluated externally (external to Solihull). I would love to get the money to do so!!!

Guest guest Posted July 30, 2002 Report Share Posted July 30, 2002 Dear Toity, I wonder How much research has been carried out on the ages of children referred to CAMHS In my experience they tend to be five or over. It would seem to me that we to be should be offering services that are appropriate for the 0-4 years old. I guess this is what this trawl for ideas is about. Most of the parents I have seen in the past year (with children aged between 0-5) have experienced very difficult times with their children in various forms from the beginning of pregnancy onwards. Many of them have had very problematic childhoods themselves. We need to find a way of working with these parents before the problem becomes chronic, Any ideas?
