Dr. Carney discussed the effects of the Covid 19 pandemic on the mental health of children, and how behavioral health professionals can guide parents to help their children cope and manage their emotions as we enter the third year of the pandemic. Areas discussed include:
•The dramatic increases in emergency department visits for all mental health emergencies, specifically suspected suicide attempts, from children
•How an abnormal school environment, worsening learning loss and social isolation, has caused an increase in children’s behavioral issues
•Significance of the national state of emergency being declared on children’s mental health
•Bringing awareness to the warning signs parents should keep in mind when observing their child's mental state
•How behavioral health professionals can offer advice and support to people looking to build stable environment for children as the epidemic continues
Dr. Carney also opens up about her own family’s experience with the pandemic, and how they are coping.
