This book was released on 2007 with total page 39 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A previous project by the Foundation for People with Learning Disabilities analysed data that had been collected by the Office for National Statistics (ONS) in 1999 in their survey of the mental health of children and adolescents in Great Britain. The Foundation found that in this nationally representative sample of just over 10,000 children, 39% of 5-15 year old British children with learning disabilities had a diagnosable mental health problem (compared to 8% among children who did not have learning disabilities). In 2004 the ONS repeated their survey on a new sample of over 7,000 children. The aims of the present study are, by analysing combined data from the 1999 and 2004 ONS Surveys of the mental health of children and adolescents in Britain, to ascertain: (1) the prevalence of psychiatric disorders among children and adolescents with learning disabilities in Britain (overall prevalence, prevalence of specific disorders, prevalence of combinations of disorders); (2) the extent that learning disabilities represents a risk factor for psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents? (3) the extent that risk factors for psychiatric disorder (e.g., gender, familial socio-economic position, life events) within the population of children and adolescents with learning disabilities correspond to those within the general child and adolescent population; and (4) the support that families supporting a child with learning disabilities and of psychiatric disorders receive? This report, based on the experiences of over 18,000 children aged between 5 and 15 years old found that one in three (33 per cent) children with learning disabilities are likely to have a mother with mental health needs and nearly half are living in poverty (47 per cent). Young people with learning disabilities also have fewer friends than other children living in Britain and are more likely to suffer abuse and be involved in serious accidents.

Download or read book Mental Health Services for Vulnerable Children and Young People written by Michael Tarren-Sweeney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than half of children either in foster care, or adopted from care in the developed world, have a measurable need for mental health services, while up to one quarter present with complex and severe trauma- and attachment-related psychological disorders. This book outlines how services can effectively detect, prevent, and treat mental health difficulties in this vulnerable population. Responding to increasing evidence that standard child and adolescent mental health services are poorly matched to the mental health service needs of children and young people who have been in foster care, this book provides expert guidance on the design of specialised services. The first part provides an overview of these children’s mental health needs, their use of mental health services and what is known about the effectiveness of mental health interventions provided to them. The second part presents some recent innovations in mental health service delivery, concentrating on advances in clinical and developmental assessment and treatment. The final part confronts the challenges for delivering effective mental health services in this area. This is the definitive international reference for the design of specialised mental health services for children and young people in care and those adopted from care. It is invaluable reading for health and social care professionals working with this population and academics with an interest in child and adolescent mental health from a range of disciplines, including social work, nursing and psychology.
