Session Description:
The Department of Health, Action Plan for Children and Young People states 22% of all Australian children live in housing instability (Australian Government 2019). Marginalised children, particularly those from homeless families, are an at-risk group who may suffer long term physical and mental health impacts from disadvantage. Adverse childhood experiences incurred during times of disadvantage include trauma, domestic violence, and multiple toxic stressors that negatively impact long term on neurobiological development, cognitive ability, and mental health.
Dr Yvonne Parry will provide an overview of the last 8 years of research with children living in housing instability and the Nurse Practitioner led model of health care. This innovative model of health care identifies and supports children and their families to access to health care review the epidemiology and pathophysiology of COVID-19 and how it affects the paediatric population. Discussing issues around disease carriage, manifestations, treatments and schooling.
