In episode 7, Dr. Ruth Crowther speaks to Professor Tricia Nagel about the Aboriginal and Islander Mental health initiative (AIMhi), the Stay Strong app and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander digital mental health.
Professor Tricia Nagel has thirty years of experience working in NT rural and remote mental health and substance use settings as psychiatrist and educator. Since 2003 Professor Nagel has led a research program based at Menzies School of Health Research in Darwin. The program promotes Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives of mental health and access to culturally responsive services and treatments. It has transitioned over two decades from face-to-face, paper-based treatments and tools, to digital solutions that continue to embed holistic and empowering elements.
Ruth and Tricia discuss First Nations mental health, the AIMhi project, its goals, challenges and how it has evolved, as well as the Stay Strong app, the Strong Country, Strong People website and Tricia's tips for how to use digital mental health resources in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in rural and remote areas.
