Healio (5/16, Young) reports, “Time, financial and energy constraints are the leading barriers to mental health care access for health care workers, according to research.” Investigators came to this conclusion after conducting “a cross-sectional survey-based study” in which they “evaluated the burden of mental illness and access to resources and treatment for health care workers,” including a total of “149 participants in various health care roles including nurses, physicians, pharmacists and support staff.” The findings were presented at the American Psychiatric Association annual meeting.
