In this episode of 'This is Rural Health,' host Scott Hertzberg is joined by Dr. Steven Sust and Dr. Jonathan Updike, child and adolescent psychiatrists from Stanford University, to discuss mental health challenges faced by rural Indigenous youth. The conversation covers the role of integrated and telepsychiatry care models, the importance of early intervention and support systems post-suicide incidents, and the impact of intergenerational trauma on mental health. Doctors Sust and Updike emphasize a collaborative approach and share insights into Stanford's initiatives like the Alcove program and ECHO sessions aimed at empowering young people and integrating community support. They also provide resources and information on upcoming events and programs to help healthcare providers better serve indigenous communities.What You’ll Learn From This Episode:The importance of youth mental healthFocus on Indigenous youth and integrated careTelepsychiatry and rural health challengesSuicide prevention and postvention strategiesImpact of the pandemic on Indigenous youthUnderstanding Indigenous health systemsEngaging youth in mental health initiativesThe role of peer support in youth mental healthStanford Indigenous youth mental health ECHOConnect with Steven Sust:@sustevenmd: Instagram | Twitter@stanfordyouthmh: Instagram | Facebook | Twitter@allcoveyouth: Instagram | Facebook | Twitter@goodformedia: Instagram | TwitterResourcesTwo Feathers Native American Family Services, United Indian Health Services,Stanford Center for Youth Mental Health and WellbeingNative American Youth Mental Health and School Mental HealthThe CSRHA has been a go-to resource for rural healthcare and community leaders since 1995.
