INTRODUCTION
The term electronic mental health is referring to the use of internet and related
technologies to deliver the information which is related with the mental health. In this, the
services and care are used to provide to the individual my online intervention technique in order
to prevent and treatment of mental illness. usually, there was number of software and application
usually followed this in order to provide the instant requirement of information related to any
individual who is facing a dealing with the consequences of mental health. Moreover, this is also
analysed that a number of factors is usually association associated with the patient. Moreover,
this is not possible to all the time to get the touch with the doctor and physician. However, the
electronic mental health is useful in order to produce the information from the from the doctor of
physician (Bernhardt and et. al., 2017). In this, current time the covid-19 is spread in very rapid
face so it is a safe to implement appropriate measures so electronic mental health services is a
way by which the infection of the covid-19 visible to other in the self-care of the sector. It
usually helps to improve the practices by adopting various strategies in order to create self-
awareness and wellbeing the number of people especially it is associated with the worker in the
condition of pandemic. In this report it is well analyse that the method and other precursors
which is used in often to complete the project. Moreover, there are various method and strategies
are used to adopted in this project to make it compatible and appropriate. In this, the chosen
organisation which is associated with in order to providing online psychological aspect for those
who are facing or dealing the issues with their mental problem is taking the online information
through this the selected organisation is Better help (Brooks and et. al., 2020).
MAIN BODY
Section 4A: Knowledge activity
Give examples of different reasons for undertaking research in your organisation.
The main component to undertaking the research on the better help because it is online
solution for those who is facing a deal in the issues with their mental problem. In order to this,
the use inform is used to provide and related with the various hospitals and healthcare sectors
with various psychiatric and they usually create an online websites or application through. This
used to transfer the information from that particular psychiatric to the number of individuals was
taking the appointment and in this the better health usually as organisation connect with that

particular psychiatric in order to get more information about their health concerns (Forouhi and
et. al., 2018).
What sources of secondary information may you use during research?
The secondary information which is usually collected and gathered to analyse the topic in
order to create the research are usually associated with the various websites which is
SpringerLink and so on, usually, this website is used to provide information about organisation
which is choose in in order to create some factors which is relevant send evidence based.
Moreover, the main factor of collecting the secondary information is also from the books,
magazines, newspapers, and various articles which is based on the electronic mental health. In
this, chosen an organisation Better help is also involve and used to provide necessary step
towards the technology during the covid. Moreover, usually this organisation has a main focus
on providing the infectious free information to those who are facing a deal in the issues with
their health concerns which may be mental health. So, as per this, they use to connect number of
psychiatric on a single technological based software and order to provide the information to the
patient (Holmes and et. al., 2020).
Briefly define the principles of evidence-based practice.
The basic principles of the evidence-based practices are usually help to provide the good
qualities decision that is based on the combination of various thinking and paste available of the
evidences. It also used to provide various help in the practitioners to identify their finds and
evaluate the additional evidence relevant to their decisions. Moreover, the principles of evidence-
based practices are used to formulate clinical questions locating element research critically
evaluate the quality of the research and applied research in the appropriate way.
How can you evaluate the validity of information sources?
This is very important to determine the reliability and availability validity of any articles
by using some of the following procedures which is help to evaluate the books or the articles. In
this, appropriate look at the author credentials for clarity articles this is usually pretty simple
trick organised the edition and so on. Review the articles contain examine the evidence and
determine bias. Moreover, it is important to evaluate the source and validity of the information
which is found in the website by the think critically about the reliability validity accuracy

timelines point of you which is bias or non-bias for that particular information sources (Isik and
et. al., 2018).
Give examples of primary research sources. Give a brief outline of how each can be conducted.
There is various example from which the primary research is conducted. In this, some of
the examples of the primary source for made include manuscript, material, photographs, audio
recordings, video recordings, journals, letter, and diaries, speeches, scrapbooks, published books,
newspaper, and magazine, clipping published at the time. Moreover, it's also available from the
government publications oral histories record of organisation autobiographies printed ephemera
as artifacts costume furniture research data which is based on the public interview or opinion
polls or using some questionnaires technique in order to extract the primary research.
The example which is through the presence of primary research sources are usually
conducted by various technique. In this, the books articles are reviewed by studying and
questionnaires and public policy are usually conducted by using face to face interview or some
approaches which is briefly describe the scenarios of the particular topic the face-to-face
interview is essential and provide evidence-based data for the future references. In this, it is well
evaluated that the primary research is conducted as per the vision of researcher.
Highlight five (5) ways of ensuring that your research is ethical and culturally appropriate.
Discuss intellectual property frankly: As per this, it is the first step to identify the ethical
consideration during any research it is important to be frank with every data which associated
with any individual or organisation.
Be conscious of multiple roles: Sometime, it is a well analysed and evaluated that the
condition which is associated with the researcher are used to play various role in order to collect
the data or to get the data sometime it's become risky for the researcher in gathering data. So,
they used to play multiple roles in order to collect the data and maintain the research ethics.
Follow informed concerns rule: This is well appropriate that every researcher have their
own rules and sometime the research community is also established some of the rule just like
copyright patency and so on. As per this, it is a part of ethical consideration which is usually
followed by a researcher in order to maintain the resilience of research (Johnson and et. al.,
2021).
Respect confidentiality and privacy: In this, it is well analysed that there are various data
during the research are private and need confidently. As per this, the researcher must create the

ethics in order to keep as a secret and make them the things private which is not audible to be a
part of research.
Tap into ethics resources: This approach is useful in everywhere where the research is
conducted this is usually help to maintain the ethical consideration in order to create a new issue
on energy resources which is making understanding of ethics.
Give examples of processes that support analysis of information.
While collecting the information that analysis has a number of process which is defined in
various step. In this, the first step is used to define the question which is based on any data
analysis. This question is measurable clear and concise the designing of the question is most
qualified and disqualify the potential solution of the problem or any opportunity to start with a
clearly defined problem the government contractor face experience rising of cost and is no longer
able to submit competitive contract proposals. As per this, the question should be well discussed
and clear in order to get the answer the second step is its clear measurement priorities. In this,
decide the essentials’ part which is to be measure and what are the ways by which the
measurement is done. In this, the third step is collected data which show that the determination
of the information and their analysis is must create a database and in order to this the data is most
collected after enjoying their evidence. The fourth step is analysing data which clearly state that
the data which is collected from the resources or any source must be analysed in appropriate way
that the collected data is so any evidence or not (Sala and et. al., 2017).
In order to this, the clear prove of evidence can create the data more comfortable in order to
create the relevant point for the researcher the final step in this is interpreted of the result. In this,
after collecting and analysing the data it is very essential to take some conclusion points in order
to this that the recommendation is also approved by the researcher after analysing the data. So,
the result is to be focused that it is not in bias way and also it is not hunt ne individual any
community traditions ritual or anymore.
Section 4B: Performance activity
Research and identify means of improving your health or social care practices for at least two
different issues.
Ensure that you:
establish and define appropriate research objectives

assess credible sources of data and evidence using a systematic approach
establish the relevance of information according to the objectives and requirements of your
practice.
Objective:
 To analyse the concept of mental health in young people.
In this, the objective stated the concept of mental health people this is deliberately state the
various accountable features which is related with the people who are in young age. In this, the
face number of issues due to the social factor. In this, the society used to play unethical rule with
the young people or teenager in order to make criticise for their career or the goal this create
negative impact in the young people and usually with this behaviour moral and the motivation of
the young people is totally demising the self-esteem and self-confidence of the young people
who is facing the script criticism for the longer period become uncontrollable and face the
various phase of depression anxiety and eating disorder. This condition is usually persisting for
the longer and the individual is used to make some suicidal thoughts. This is also well evaluated
that the failure is the key point in order to create the mental health in the young people the
rejection is also an essential approach which is followed by any individual for the longer period
can create the consequences of the depression and anxiety. Moreover, this is well analysed that
the mental health it is usually create a positive impact where the individual is physical emotional
social wellbeing. The step of happiness towards the life, as per this the competitive life use to
create rivalry with physical and mental approaches. In this, the failure and rejection is a key
assessment through this the individual take a look into the face of depression and anxiety. So,
moreover the concept of the mental health in the young people are associated with the lowering
of self-esteem and self-confidence through the rejections (Shahbaz and et. al., 2018).
 To evaluate the concept of health inequality in various social class for safe sector.
In this, it is determined that a society have different class and they’re on pattern of standard
of life this all are will created and formulated as per the economic and financial growth of an
individual. As per this, financial stable person has a better standard of living and approaches
towards the life. As per their it is also evaluated that in the healthcare sectors the health
inequality is a major challenge where the health is now divided on the basis of social class.
However, the healthcare sector is predominantly providing better health to those who are have a
good economical class and ability pay more and more to the healthcare groups. The division of

social class can also correlate with the health because of money in which the highest social
classes have ability to pray a much amount as compared in other social class. This all aspect
create discrimination towards the health with the people. Moreover, the health inequality is
usually originating from the class of people believe that health is a business and healthcare
sectors are usually through them opportunity by putting some amount as per this it creates a
health inequality in various ways (Watts and et. al., 2017).
Analyse the information that was gathered for both issues in the first major activity.
Ensure that you:
carry out a comparison and contrast of the different information sources
assess the feasibility, benefits and risks associated with the practices.
The information in the first major activity is collected from the various information
sources in this while making a contrast. This is analysed that the both the factor associated with
the health care in order to this the data is well gathered as per using the websites and books.
Moreover, this is also show some of the implications and have a difference in the pattern of
writing. Moreover, this is also defined as the concept of the activity is based on the electronic
mental health which allow or transfer the information through online mode from the psychiatric
to the patient. As per this, after making the comparison it is evaluated that the comparison of the
information sources is relevant and they are not appropriate. In this, it is also state about the
function and dysfunction which is caused by electronic mode but as per the current time in the
situation of covid 19 the electronic mental health plays a vital role in order to providing the
approach towards the patient by putting the online appointment with the psychiatrist in order to
eradicate the issues which associated with the health (Weersing and et. al., 2017).
The benefits and the risk which are associated with these practices are the condition is
well analysed that the electronic mental health is an opportunity for the various organisation and
they used to play a major role in establishing the profitability and productivity. However, it's also
provided benefit to the number of people who are facing to take the treatment or diagnose in
order to their mental health this approach provide online prescription and online mode to share
the complications with their psychiatric and they usually provide a barriers medication or
management to the patient.

The risk which is associated with this is losing of confidentiality and privacy as today's it is
well concluded that there are a number of factors which is put the threaten of the losing of
privacy.
Assess the potential uses of research information and implement evidence-based practices for
both issues.
Ensure that you:
consider various issues in relation to the practices that you identified
take appropriate action based on the research findings.
In this, the issues which is identified in the relation with the practices are electronic mental
health and regarding with the safety in which it helps to improve and ensure the adopted
strategies for on professional self-care and wellness. This is important for the worker and the
sector is especially since the pandemic because it is very necessary to take some of the strategies
to be aware from the condition and avoid the virus spread by using some of the common things.
In order to this, the government are used to provide various guideline such as using of hand
sanitizer and keep distance from one and other. This approach is initiated for the people through
the government in this the self-care which is usually needed by the professional in order to
maintain the resilience by using this strategy implement the only strategy in the case of pandemic
because the strategies are used to create a factor of safety and security among the population
(Phillippi and et. al., 2018).
As per this, the electronic mental health is usually an essential approach in the condition of
covid-19 because there are a number of healthcare sector which facing the problems of covid-19
and they have high rate of patient who is dealing of facing with the covid-19. In order to this, it is
difficult to take the treatment or any type of prescription for any patient who is facing a dealing
with the mental health. In this, covid-19 there are number of individuals are used to cope and
deal with the depression and anxiety. Moreover, to retaliate or to eradicate the dysfunction of
depression and anxiety used to create some of the strategies and electronic mental health is one
of the most essential approach by the governments of the organisation itself to provide the
information to those patients who is dealing with the mental health. This is a technological based
online service provided by the various psychiatric to their patient and also the patient who is
taking any appointment with any psychiatrist at allowed to take and there used to resolve from all
the complications or consequences which is faced by them (Ullah and et. al., 2021).
