Telepsychiatry is a modern organization of psychiatric service with help of information-communication technologies (ICT).
This is important in North, considering its geographical and demographic features. In our project, psychiatric care rendered
to children and adolescents is regarded as preventive. Sociological study was conducted among 546 specialists working in sphere
of prevention in Arkhangelsk region in Russia. We assessed opinion on ways to improve prevention system for maintaining mental
health. At the same time, we identified problems, main of which are availability of medical care and staffing problems. The proposal is
to develop distance counseling in psychiatry. Given similarity of features of Northern Norway and Arkhangelsk region, as well as 25
years of experience in telemedicine in Norway, the Norwegian-Russian project has been under implementation since 2016. Main goal
is to improve quality of prevention and treatment of people with mental disorders in remote areas by implementing ICT and practical
solutions for e-health applications. Pilot areas have been selected, web-pages have been developed, skype-consultations have been
given by doctors, psychologists, teachers. For first year project, positive feedback was received concerning implementation of e-health
elements. Second year of project is devoted to network training, dissemination of experience in other areas. The acquired skills and
knowledge, as well as encouraging positive results lead to fact that work will be continued as a part of our daily activities when the
project is over. Basis for sustainable system for supporting remote areas will be activities of newly established "Distance Work Unit"
at Arkhangelsk psychoneurological dispensary.
