Looks at issues emerging, and views from young people, parents and staff. Different Models of provision for young people: facts and figures, the background context to the study is set out, along with the study design and methodology and the conclusions and recommendations arising from the research. One chapter describes the sample in-patient units, including for each the challenges they identified in providing services and their plans for the future. Another presents a range of different models for providing support to young people with mental health difficulties on a residential basis. These include a service designed to fill the gap between adolescent and adult psychiatry and one set up for young people with early onset psychosis.

Views from young people, parents and staff as much as possible quotes from those who were interviewed for the study are used to illustrate the issues raised by the research. The issues are clustered into four main phases of contact with in-patient CAMHS: issues before admission; the admission process; issues during stay and discharge and after. Throughout the report, checklists are presented that will be of value to practitioners working with young people who require in-patient care and treatment. These include what young people want to know on admission, the views of older adolescents towards their involvement in their care and what young people identified as helpful aspects of care. One chapter also draws together all the things identified by young people that can help to make the experience of admission to an in-patient unit more positive.
