The Challenge
Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, patients on the acute mental health ward further experience isolation, occupational deprivation and disruption.
The Change
I created individual isolation packs to promote health and well-being, reduce deterioration in occupational functioning and promote engagement in meaningful activities. It also included self care items and a WiFi code to connect with family/friends.
The Impact
Patients identified that the packs were individualised, encompassing individual likes and interests. Patients reported the packs provided them with the opportunity to engage in meaningful activity and allowed them to connect with family/friends.
