AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

Mental Health Update: A six-year review presented at Montserrat’s Ministry of Health and Social Services’ Annual Research Day found depressive and psychotic disorders are the top diagnoses among people using mental health services, with 405 patients and 413 illness episodes recorded from 2020–2026; new patient presentations rose 12.7% in the latest three-year period, and children and adolescents aged 10–19 now make up the largest group, helped by a dedicated child and adolescent clinical psychologist. Research in Action: The same Research Day highlighted ongoing pressure from hypertension, diabetes, depression, psychotic disorders and prostate-related conditions, including encouraging results from a small self-management pilot for people living with both hypertension and type 2 diabetes. Road Safety: A 59-year-old man in Montserrat, Missouri, suffered serious injuries after an e-bike crash on July 27, when he lost control while turning and was thrown into a ditch. Swine Health Preparedness: SHIC and FFAR funded six projects totaling $719,415 to strengthen swine disease monitoring and mitigation, including work on airborne disease strategies and improved African swine fever detection tools. Regional Support: OECS praised Cuba for continued solidarity with the sub-region despite the long-running US embargo, with cooperation expected to continue in health and disaster resilience.
