Gov't discusses steps being taken to 'fill in mental health gaps'
The Head of Mental Health Isle of Man is predicting we'll come out of the current pandemic and go straight into a mental health pandemic.
Ross Bailey has been addressing the backlash of the coronavirus crisis and how government plans on 'filling in the gaps' in mental health care.
Steps being taken include the recruitment of 9 new therapists, opportunities for the public to get CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) training, and working more collaboratively with third sector services.
Mr Bailey was speaking at a pre-recorded government briefing:
Island warned to expect heavy rain this afternoon
