Area of Science:

  • Child and Adolescent Mental Health
  • Social Services
  • Healthcare Process Improvement

Background:

  • Standardised needs assessments in child and adolescent mental health have historically overlooked process considerations.
  • Effective implementation of assessment tools is crucial for service delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the theoretical and practical aspects of developing a structured needs assessment process.
  • To evaluate the implementation of the Salford Needs Assessment Schedule for Adolescents (SNASA) in a secure unit setting.

Main Methods:

  • A descriptive approach was used to examine the development and implementation of a structured assessment process.
  • The study focused on the clinical version of the Salford Needs Assessment Schedule for Adolescents (SNASA).
  • The context involved child and adolescent mental health liaison with a social services secure unit for adolescent boys.

Main Results:

  • A structured process model significantly eased the implementation of the SNASA.
  • Participating staff across different hierarchical levels reported positive outcomes.
  • The wider professional network also experienced benefits from the structured approach.

Conclusions:

  • Successful implementation of structured assessments in multi-agency settings necessitates focused and continuous attention to process issues.
  • This structured approach can be beneficial in various child and adolescent mental health settings, extending beyond secure adolescent care.
  • Ongoing process evaluation is key for sustained use of assessment instruments.
