Targeted interventions require investigation to determine effectiveness. Healthy Mothers Healthy Families (HMHF) is a health, wellbeing and empowerment program that addresses mothers need to protect, and or, recover their own health due to caregiving impacts. This study compared the effectiveness of HMHF e-workshops online compared to no intervention. The HMHF e-workshops were delivered to 290 mothers across the 2020-2022 Covid-19 pandemic and 172 participated in research. The HMHF e-workshops included 3 online 2- hour workshops facilitated by credentialled peer-facilitators, closed online group chat, e-workbook and online learning package. Participants in both groups completed surveys pre and post the workshops (or control) over 8-10 weeks. Mothers who participated in HMHF significantly increased health help seeking behaviours (p < .001), and improved mental health and health behaviors over time: health behavior (p < .001), positive wellbeing (p < .004) and depression (p < .001) and stress symptoms (p = .005). Compared to controls, HMHF e-workshop participants significantly improved health behaviours (p < .001) and self-reported symptoms of depression (p = .002) and stress (p = .005) over 8-10 weeks. E-workshops were accessible and effective for mothers of children with high care needs and family responsibilities across the COVID-19 pandemic. Compared to no intervention, the HMHF intervention was more effective for improving healthy behaviours and mental health.

BOURKE-TAYLOR, Auteur ; Kahli S. JOYCE, Auteur ; Sarah GRZEGORCZYN, Auteur ; Loredana TIRLEA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3800-3813 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Autism Spectrum Disorder  Disabled Persons  Female  Humans  Mental Health  Mothers/psychology  Surveys and Questionnaires  Childhood disability  Mothers  Wellbeing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This paper investigated the characteristics of mothers of children with a disability who registered for a mental health and wellbeing workshop. The questionnaire measured mental health, health-related behaviours, empowerment, family cohesion, wellbeing and child-related variables. Regression analysis identified factors associated with depressive symptoms and positive wellbeing. Fifty-seven percent of participants (N=171) had depressive symptoms within the clinical range. Higher symptoms were associated with reduced: empowerment (r=-.39, p<.01); positive-wellbeing (r=-.66, p<.05); and healthy activity (r=-.41, p<.001). Low positive wellbeing (Î2=.55, p<.001) was the strongest predictor of depressive symptoms. Family cohesion (Î2=.25, p<.001), was the strongest predictor of positive-wellbeing. Future health and wellbeing interventions that support mothers with high care responsibilities should include psycho-education and strategies to address healthy maternal and family-related behaviour changes.
