Mental health support that meets public healthcare needs
Kooth's services make large scale prevention a reality across whole populations. Kooth services are also linked to broader health economics outcomes, such as reduced numbers of anti-depressant prescriptions and lower hospital admissions due to suicidal ideation or self-harm.
Digital support can change lives
Sir Norman Lamb talks to Dr Lynne Green about digital support in the context of the crisis care concordat initiative, commenting:
"Being able to access support directly without having to go on a waiting list for months on end - which is the experience with many of our traditional - services...is a priceless part of the architecture of support that we should make available to people."
