The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service review commissioned by the DCSF and Department of Health have published their interim report:
Key points:
- There is evidence that the range of developments since 1995 in all services has achieved some notable improvements in all education, social care and health services, particularly the requirement on Local Authorities and Primary Care Trusts to produce a co-ordinated Child and Adolescent Mental Health Strategy.
- Comprehensive improvement in access to services for all children and consistency of provision across the full range of services has not yet been achieved.
- It has not been possible to monitor improvements in outcomes for children and young people as reliable routine outcome measurement and data collection is a complex task that is only just beginning to be undertaken by many services.
