Mental health issues in children/adolescents living within low
socioeconomic areas of Australia
Purpose
This report has been written to inform children/adolescents, parents and health care
professionals regarding the significance of avoiding mental health issues in children/adolescents.
Special emphasis has been given over the import
ance of nurses’ role in the provision of primary
health care through education, health encouragement, illness prevention, support and partnership.
Introduction
Mental health is in fact the personification of social, emotional and spiritual wellbeing.
Unfortunately in Australia, mental health troubles are common and their ratio is approximately
one out of seven individuals. There can be noticed further increment in mental troubles among
the children living in poor and/or broken families. According to several research studies, if such
problems could develop in a child then these may persist into the later stages of life as well for
example; in adolescence and adulthood.
Therefore; it’s necessary to defend the health of the population in context of emotional
and social aspects via encouragement of such factors which might prove to be helpful in
enhancement of mental health. Nurses/Medicos may perform a significant role in eradication of
this problem via creation of such environment in child care centers that may favor excellent
mental health and comfort of all children.
Definitions:
Mental health promotion
It is any action taken to maximize mental health and wellbeing among populations and
individuals.
Adolescence
The period following the onset of puberty during which a young person develops from a
child into an adult.
Adulthood
The period of time in your life after your physical growth has stopped and you are fully

Social wellbeing

Emotional wellbeing
Ability to understand the value of your emotions and use them to move your life forward

Spiritual wellbeing

spiritual aspects of life.
Socioeconomic Status
An individual's or group's position within a hierarchical social structure.
Background
The application of term ―developmental health and welfare‖ indicates towards the
achievement of excellence via individuals in physical, emotional and intellectual aspects.
Though in context of Australia, there could be observed a number of children who are
developing in a well mode yet, a significant proportion of Australian children can be termed
vulnerable in the context of development. In such children, children living within low
socioeconomic areas of Australia may also be included.
Adverse health results connected to poverty and decreased life probabilities usually
initiate at birth and may persist during the whole life cycle. According to a research study, when
compared with their counterparts, poor children are more likely to be underweight, or to die in
the initial months of their life. The relation between pitiable mental health and lower socio
economic status is also well set up.
Discussion
In fact, there could are strong evidences which point out that the initial years of progress
can work as the foundation for...
