Disruption in access to child health care comes with a cost. Certainly important from health policy perspective and the importance in maintaining community health care for young children and other priority populations. @WoolfendenSusan

I'm excited about our published rapid review and international bricolage on digital inclusion and people with intellectual disabilities during COVID-19: doi.org/10.1111/jppi.1… @WalmsleyJan @liz_tilley24 @m_nind @power_geog @janeseale @Laurel_Mimmo @emmagenetics @WoolfendenSusan

Children’s development is a product of their environment. The first 1000 days are crucial for infancy and the longer term. This must be understood better to prevent a catastrophe. #COVID19 @WoolfendenSusan @sharon_goldfeld @DrJinRussell @AlisonLeversha

It’s a blessing to have a good work place but a privilege to have amazing colleagues who you can call friends @PopChildHealth @UNSWObGyn_Paeds @WoolfendenSusan @NoraSamirSYD @MichaelHodgin18 @nicolakpaul

Great work led by Joanna Glover and @NoraSamirSYD @PopChildHealth @UNSWMedicine and author team, supported by @SEastSydHealth outlining the evidence for place based interventions in the First 2000 days sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@Laurel_Mimmo @BMJ_Open Outstanding work by @Laurel_Mimmo and her brilliant young people and their parents in showing us how co-design with young people with a lived experience of intellectual disability can be done

So proud to work with this great advisory group to improve the lives of children and young people with lived experience of cerebral palsy by addressing their psychosocial needs through the EPIC-CP project @IvaStrnadova @SCHNkids @CPA_Research @schf_kids @NSWHealth @hnelhd

“The unintended consequence of the lockdown measures such as social isolation and reduced access to school and community services have potentially exacerbated the long-standing issues faced by the young people.” @hnnathanhu @SCHNkids @UNSWMedicine newsroom.unsw.edu.au/news/health/ki…

The GBD data show globally an increase in the prevalence of both major depressive disorder (estimated additional 53·2 million cases or a 27·6% increase) and anxiety disorders (76·2 million additional cases or a 25·6 % increase) since the pandemic. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

New paper from @hnnathanhu @WoolfendenSusan @MichaelHodgin18 and colleagues from @PopChildHealth @SCHNkids 👇👇 The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on paediatric health service use in NSW sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Our new Research Insight shows that lots of families are experiencing financial stress, especially those with young kids. This matters because the early years are a critical period where we lay the foundations for health and opportunity across the lifespan.
