What are the health services in secondary school?
The psychologist service provides the following:
Who are the community health nurses?
School Health Services are delivered in all public secondary schools and colleges across Western Australia by Community Health Nurses, who are employed by WA Country Health Services or Child and Adolescent Health Service (in metropolitan Perth). Community Health Nurses working with secondary schools are usually based at one school, but may also provide services at other schools.
Who are their clients?
Community Health Nurses are well skilled in assessing adolescent health needs, and frequently engage in health counselling with young people to identify issues, risks and protective factors; provide advise; provide brief intervention; assist with access and referral to other services, and provide follow up care. A recent survey of Community Health Nurses in WA secondary schools indicated that students present with a wide range of health issues. The ten most common issues are; anxiety, stress, depression or low mood, relationship problems, sexual health, sexuality, reproductive health, nutrition, lifestyle or health behaviours and drug misuse. It is also common for Community Health Nurses to encounter young people who self-harm, who have considered or attempted suicide, and those seeking help for sexual assault and/or domestic violence. The school health centre is a place where adolescents can drop in or make appointments to discuss health and well-being issues. Young people may independently seek assistance from a Community Health Nurse, but can be referred by parents, teachers or student services teams.
The chaplain works as part of the Student Services team promoting student wellbeing, particularly through the provision of pastoral care. Chaplaincy facilitates connection into the school network and wider community of students who are suffering from bereavement, family breakdown or other crisis and loss situations.
