We welcome back Seini Falefata, qualified & practising Psychiatric Nurse with Etu Pasifika in Christchurch, for our talanoa series "Ngalu Fanifo" - A new wave for mental wellbeing on Pacific Days. 

Last week we looked at an article that highlighted the rising numbers of “self-harm” admissions to hospitals amongst young people. An indication of what many are calling a “mental health crisis” among young people. 

We will continue to explore this especially with massive numbers of Omicron heading into the 20k plus zone as we project towards the peak of the current outbreak.

How do families stay vigilant and mentally resilient? What are ways families can stay sane if they are trapped in their home for 10 days of self-isolation if they have a household case? 

How do youth cope with the likelihood they will be infected if their school or classes have a majority of cases? 

For more information on the Ngalu Fanifo initiative please visit http://pasifikafutures.co.nz/ngalu-fanifo/

This site will direct you to the providers in different parts of the country. This interview will also be on PMN platforms.
