It's safe to say that a lot has happened since the team started working again, but the first case of Covid-19 was detected in the Westfjords at the same time that, naturally, the restrictions that came with Covid had an effect on the activities. The waiting list for the team's services was long and many people who wanted to be in the service or had been in the service and wanted to continue. At first, the emphasis was on listening to everyone as much as possible, taking the situation and deciding what to do next.<\/p>\n
Since it was not possible to invite people to interviews at the health care, the first interviews took place through Kara Connect, which is a secure way, certified by the National Health Service to offer remote interviews. In mid-May, it was finally possible to invite clients to interviews at the health care facility. It has gone well and the services of the mental health team are well used. The mental health team is intended to take care of the entire country, and it is planned that Thelma Bj\u00f6rk will go on a field trip next September 24 and 25 to further promote the activities and establish relationships with both health professionals and clients in the southern part of the Vestfjords. You can book an appointment at the health care center in Patreksfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur by calling 450-2000, get more information about the services that are available, and follow up with conversation therapy if needed. Regular interviews will be available in the future, both on site while weather permits and in between with remote mental health services.<\/p>\n More information about the mental health team can be found here<\/a> but it is worth noting that the team's services are free of charge to clients.<\/p>\n If you have questions or if you want more information, you can contact Thelma Bj\u00f6rk at the email address thelma@hvest.is<\/a> or by phone 450-4500.<\/p>\n Author: SLG<\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Vestfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur's mental health team resumed work on April 1, 2020 after a break of several months, but on that day Thelma Bj\u00f6rk Gu\u00f0mundsd\u00f3ttir assumed the position of project manager of the team.
