ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial, called "Community Based Mental Health Screening and Referral," is focused on helping women in a rural area of Dadu, Sindh, Pakistan, who have been affected by floods. The study aims to see how well a program works that trains local health workers to check for mental health issues like depression and anxiety in women aged 18 to 49. If any concerns are found, these health workers will refer the women to local doctors who can provide further support and counseling. The trial also includes community group sessions to raise awareness about mental health and help build resilience among the women.
Currently, the study is not yet recruiting participants, but it is designed specifically for women of reproductive age living in the affected area. Those who join can expect to be part of a supportive program that focuses on identifying mental health needs and connecting them to the right resources. The findings from this study will help shape future mental health services, especially in areas that frequently experience disasters.
