Mental health and psychosocial support after the tsunami in Thailand
Abstract
This article presents an overview of the psychosocial and mental health response after the Asian Tsunami hit Thailand in 2004. The organization and deployment of service modalities that used pre-existing community and school advisory programmes for rapid emergency response were seen as key elements of the response. Mental health programmes were provided to mitigate and ameliorate the effects of the catastrophic event. We describe these strategies and report on lessons learnt.

In the citing paper
“An additional concern is that much of the disaster mental health research has traditionally focussed on three distinct phases (the emergency and crisis stage, the post-impact stage, and the rehabilitation and recovery phase) [56], while little attention has been paid to psychosocial phenomena that can occur during the pre-disaster phase.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
