Impact Out of Home Care for Youth
Impact's Out of Home Care (OoHC) offers a safe, nurturing environment for children and young people unable to live with their families.
Trained staff provide essential care and support for growth and well-being, collaborating with stakeholders for holistic solutions and planned transitions to permanent placements.
Problem
Children and young people in OoHC are required to have a direct voice in expressing their needs and experience to those who care for them. The Children’s Guardian requires providers regularly offer proactive opportunities for confidential feedback and well-being check-ins. Children with trauma experience living outside of home based care are also at high risk of experiencing distress and mental health symptoms.
Solution
Impact were pro-active to engage with the Give Me Five team to select a suitable question bank to reflect the needs of this cohort, and offer the campaign twice each year. Using this data Impact were able to both engage children, but also support input from case workers and other involved stakeholders.
Result
Impact have been successful in achieving over 90% return on surveys offered showing a very high desire and accessibility of the platform for both children and those supporting them. Impact identified a number of important areas for service improvement that has greatly assisted them to target their service offering.
Testimonials
Know how our mental wellness solutions have made a difference in their lives.
The results from the qualitative data collected in our initial study highlighted that GM5, as a web- based mental health screener tool, provided great utility, as both the parents and the therapist found it easy, concise, and quick to use. Parents reported much better ability to engage with their children and progress in being more able to talk through experiences.
Our experience with Give Me Five in 2021 was the it provided helpful profiles of groups of students and of students individually and it really helped in providing targeted support and intervention. Through the screening we were able to identify several children with high/critical concerns that enabled us to take steps to early intervention.
The GM5 platform is a unique tool aligned with the Stepped Care 2.0 (SC2.0) framework, emphasizing data triangulation to engage family, peers, and community in campus wellness. This will help identify students who might not seek care otherwise and support data-driven decisions on the best mental health options for them.
The Give Me 5 team was highly professional and really took the time to understand our business requirements. Their experience and consultative process ensured that the approach we implemented was customised and focused on our individual participants' needs.
I would definitely recommend it to other veterans as it's a good way to check-in with how you're going because the questions ask things that you don't necessarily think of on your own.
Mental distress is significantly more prevalent among indigenous children and adolescents compared to their non-indigenous peers. The EBS community of parents, teachers, and professionals feel limited in identifying and prioritizing signs of distress before acute behaviors develop.
