Mental health needs and services for severely troubled and troubling young people including young offenders in an N.H.S. region.

Penal, social services, special education and health agencies in one National Health Service Region were screened for severely troubled and troublesome young people in need of mental health services. One hundred and sixteen detailed assessments were undertaken on young people: 57 in "penal" and 59 in "welfare" establishments. Little difference was found between those in these two types of setting except that the "penal group" were much more likely to have high levels of violent behaviour and to have had more changes of placement. The needs for mental health care greatly outstripped supply. As part of this overall neglect, 11 of 15 young people with serious mental illnesses and all 13 who had suffered sexual abuse in the sample were not receiving appropriate treatment. A tentative estimate of the size of the problem in the region yielded a rate of around 11.4 per million with very severe disorder but this is probably an under estimate. The effectiveness of treatment for the problems of these young people is discussed and a possible structure for a service is explored.[1]
