    Abstract The rapid outbreak of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has forced most countries to take severe public health measures, including the closure of most mental health outpatient services and some inpatient units. This has led to a major transformation in the way mental health interventions are provided and has suddenly created the need to adapt and expand Tele-Mental Health (TMH) care around the world. Iranian health officials have chosen various strategies to manage COVID-19, and the State Welfare Organization (SWO) has turned to TMH services. Shortly after the outbreak of the pandemic, the SWO set up an intelligent electronic system for psychological self-assessment of people in the community. Therefore, the purposes of the present study are to introduce the action of SWO regarding TMH, and also to highlight the benefits and challenges of its implementation. There is ample evidence that the most effective measure is the rapid implementation of TMH, which can be considered by health policymakers because its use can help reduce patient and clinician infection risk, decrease mortality, and alleviate the burden on health care providers and the health system during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Abstract Background: Basic emergency management in urban and rural areas is a critical challenge, which can affect the pre-hospital mortality rate. Therefore, Non-hospital Healthcare Center (NHHC) must be prepared to manage such emergency cases that may occur in the geographic area where these centers act. The main aim of the study was to develop and validate an toolbar for NHHCs' preparedness to provide initial emergency care.
    Methods: This study was designed based on a sequential exploratory mixed- method in two phases, in each of which there are three steps. In the phase I, the literature systematic review and qualitative methods (Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) and Semi-Structured Interviews (SSIs)) were applied to identify the domains and items. In the phase II, content validity, feasibility, and reliability of the toolbar were performed. Content validity was assessed using a modified Kappa coefficient based on clarity and relevance criteria. Feasibility of the toolbar was randomly assessed through its implementation in 10 centers in Tabriz. Reliability was randomly assessed in a pilot on 30 centers. Reliability was assessed by measuring internal consistency, test-retest reliability, and inter-rater agreement. The main statistical methods for assessing reliability include Cronbach's alpha, Intra-class Correlation Coefficient, and Kendal's Tau-b. All the statistical analyses were performed using Stata 14.
    Results: In the phase I, primary version of the toolbar containing 134 items related to assessing the preparedness of NHHCs was generated. In the phase II, item reduction was applied and the final version of the toolbar was developed containing 126 items, respectively. These items were classified in 9 domains which include: "Environmental Infrastructures of Centers", "Protocols, Guidelines and Policies", "Medical Supplies and Equipment", "Emergency Medicines", "Human Resources", "Clinical Interventions", "Maintenance of equipment", "Medicine Storage Capability", and "Management Process". The toolbar had acceptable validity and reliability.
    Conclusions: This study provided a standard and valid toolbar that can be used to assess the preparedness of NHHCs to deliver initial emergency care.
