The motion
That the Parliament congratulates the University of the Highlands and Islands on receiving £44,581 of Scottish Government funding in order to help NHS Highland health and social care staff cope with the impacts of COVID-19; notes that the project will use digital technologies to help prevent and treat psychological distress and also aim to enhance the resilience of health and care workers during the COVID-19 crisis, and understands that the university’s rural health and wellbeing team is also looking to secure funding to work with other groups in rural areas that may be particularly vulnerable to the negative impacts of COVID-19 on mental health and wellbeing, such as young people and those living with long-term conditions.
