Screening of Child and Adolescent in Psychiatry (Screening for mental health issues in Children and Adolescent population).
Screening children and adolescents for mental health issues or mental illness is challenging for any mental health professionals. Generally, the child/adolescent in question or the parent would not have initiated the consultation or may not be in agreement with the need for a consultation. The referral would have been from the school or legal agency. Children may be able to report the nature of symptoms with difficulty, they may not be very good at reporting the timing, chronological event, and duration of their problems. They may not report problems if the insight is poor. There are bound to be discrepancies in the report; nevertheless, multi-source information is a requirement during diagnosis and management.
Screening is a brief assessment to know a) any organicity / serious medical issues b) safety of the child is in question c) Immediate IP Care is required because of the issue of danger to self (suicide) or others (harm to others) d) OP basis management can be planned & e) planing for detailed evaluation in a later date. This video focuses on the Screening of Child and Adolescent in Psychiatry on an outpatient basis
