Abstract (English): The prevalence of mental illness is increasing among post-secondary students. Despite more mental health services being offered within post-secondary institutions, uptake among students remains suboptimal. This study aimed to examine facilitators and barriers for students seeking mental health services through service providers' perspectives. Twenty-four semi-structured interviews were conducted at a southwestern Ontario post-secondary institution and were analyzed using thematic analysis using NVivo. Facilitators revealed include strengthening communication techniques; improving equity, diversity, and inclusion; increasing social media promotion; and providing incentives. Barriers identified include fear of judgement, time constraints, individual perceptions of the need for services, unawareness, and higher-level barriers such as lowered capacity of staff and physical resources. These facilitators and barriers should be used in tandem with the Theory of Planned Behaviour to help improve uptake and effectiveness of campus mental health services. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (French): La prévalence des troubles mentaux augmente pour les étudiants postsecondaires. Malgré l'augmentation des services de santé mentale offerts dans les établissements postsecondaires, l'adoption parmi les étudiants reste sous-optimale. Cette étude visait à examiner les facilitateurs et les obstacles pour les étudiants cherchant des services de santé mentale du point de vue des fournisseurs de services. Vingt-quatre entretiens semi-structurés ont été menés dans un établissement postsecondaire du sud-ouest de l'Ontario et ont fait l'objet d'une analyse thématique à l'aide de NVivo. Les facilitateurs révélés comprennent le renforcement des stratégies de communication, l'amélioration des pratiques d'équité, de diversité et d'inclusion, l'augmentation de la promotion sur les réseaux sociaux et l'offre d'incitatifs. Les obstacles recensés comprennent la peur du jugement, les contraintes de temps, les perceptions individuelles du besoin de services, l'ignorance et les obstacles de niveau supérieur tels que la capacité réduite du personnel et des ressources physiques. Ces facilitateurs et obstacles devraient être utilisés en tandem avec la théorie du comportement planifié pour améliorer l'utilisation et l'efficacité des services de santé mentale sur les campus.
