What are the Challenges in Providing Psychosocial Support?
There are several challenges in delivering effective psychosocial support during epidemiological events:
Resource Limitations: Limited availability of mental health professionals and services, especially in low-income regions. Stigma: Social stigma surrounding mental health can deter individuals from seeking help. Accessibility: Barriers such as lack of internet access for telehealth services can impede the delivery of support. Cultural Sensitivity: Programs must be tailored to be culturally appropriate and accessible to diverse populations.
