OBJECTIVE
This study explored how Canada's postsecondary institutions have informed students about campus mental health (MH) services via websites and social media during the COVID-19 pandemic.
METHODS
We conducted a Web-based environmental scan of 20 universities and 24 colleges across the province of Ontario, Canada, between October 2020 and July 2021.
RESULTS
91% of the institutions offered virtual counseling services and 84% offered general psychoeducational resources, whereas only 55% had COVID-19 specific MH resources. Larger institutions had more MH support to students than small schools. There was a trend toward outsourcing counseling and emergency services to external professionals via apps and hotlines. Limited MH information was available for out-of-province and international students.
CONCLUSION
It is vital for equitable campus MH services to address unique MH challenges associated with the crisis and intentional outreach to students with special circumstances. Schools can leverage peer support and self-help to promote student mental well-being.
目的
本研究探讨了在 COVID-19 大流行期间，加拿大高等院校如何通过网站和社交媒体向学生通报校园心理健康（MH）服务。
方法
我们于 2020 年 10 月至 2021 年 7 月期间对加拿大安大略省的 20 所大学和 24 所学院进行了基于网络的环境扫描。
结果
91%的院校提供虚拟咨询服务，84%提供一般心理教育资源，而只有 55%提供 COVID-19 特定的 MH 资源。较大的院校为学生提供的心理健康支持多于小型学校。通过应用程序和热线将咨询和紧急服务外包给外部专业人员的趋势明显。针对省内外学生和国际学生的心理健康信息有限。
结论
为了提供公平的校园心理健康服务，解决与危机相关的独特心理健康挑战，并有意向有特殊情况的学生提供服务，这一点至关重要。学校可以利用朋辈支持和自助来促进学生的心理健康。
