Mental Health Care Use

Onderzoek naar de determinanten van het gebruik van professionele hulpverlening omwille van sociale en emotionele problemen heeft zich tot nu toe hoofdzakelijk geconcentreerd op het belang van individuele kenmerken.  In deze bijdrage gaan we na of het zorggebruik van net‐gehuwde en net‐samenwonende mannen en vrouwen (N=798 koppels) ook beïnvloed wordt door hun partner, hun relatie (duur, gezondheidsgerelateerde steun en conflict) en het verbreken van een eerdere samenwoonrelatie. We vinden geen directe invloed van intieme relaties bij mannen, maar bij vrouwen vinden we dat diegenen die ooit gescheiden zijn en diegenen die veel conflicten hebben met hun partner een minder goede mentale gezondheid hebben en bijgevolg een grotere kans hebben om een professionele hulpverlener gecontacteerd te hebben. Uit de resultaten blijkt ook dat, los van de behoefte aan hulp, vrouwen minder vaak een professionele hulpverlener contacteren, naargelang ze langer samenwonen met hun partner. Het belang van deze resultaten voor verder onderzoek en het beleid worden besproken. Abstract : Although the literature on determinants of health care use has traditionally been concentrating on individual determinants, the couple can also be considered as an important entity in the study of mental health care use. We examine how the mental health care use of recently cohabiting or newlywed men and women (N=798 couples) is influenced by the mental health care use of their partner, characteristics of their relationship (years living together, health‐related support, conflict) and a broken cohabiting relationship. We find no direct effects of intimate relationships on men’s mental health care use. Among women, results show that those who have ever been separated and those who have more conflicts with their partner have a higher health care use, which can be attributed to their higher need for care. Results also show that the longer women live with their male partner, the less mental health care they consume.

Care Utilisation

Little is known about ex-serving military personnel who access secondary mental health care. This narrative review focuses on studies that quantitatively measure secondary mental health care utilisation in ex-serving personnel from the United States. The review aimed to identify rates of mental health care utilisation, as well as the factors associated with it. The electronic bibliographic databases OVID Medline, PsycInfo, PsycArticles, and Embase were searched for studies published between January 2001 and September 2018. Papers were retained if they included ex-serving personnel, where the majority of the sample had deployed to the recent conflicts in Iraq or Afghanistan. Fifteen studies were included. Modest rates of secondary mental health care utilisation were found in former military members—for mean percentage prevalence rates, values ranged from 12.5% for at least one psychiatric inpatient episode, to 63.2% for at least one outpatient mental health appointment. Individuals engaged in outpatient care visits most often, most likely because these appointments are the most commonly offered source of support. Post-traumatic stress disorder, particularly re-experiencing symptoms, and comorbid mental health problems were most consistently associated with higher mental health care utilisation. Easily accessible interventions aimed at facilitating higher rates of help seeking in ex-serving personnel are recommended.
