Course content

Over half of all cases of mental ill health start before the age of 14. This course teaches about adolescent and child mental health. Enrol online to learn more.

The Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) are NHS specialist services. They assess and treat children or young people with emotional, behavioural or mental health difficulties. Studying this course, you will discover the current service provision by CAMHS and Inpatient Services. The problems faced by these providers and their proposed plans for the future are covered too.

Mental health problems have a complex range of biological, psychological and social causes. These can see certain children being at greater risk than others. Conversely, protective factors are characteristics that reduce the likelihood of poor mental health. In this course, you’ll examine a range of risk and protective factors. All can influence the development of mental health problems in children and young people.

With the increased use of social media by young people, concern has grown over its impact on various aspects of mental and physical health. This course analyses the relationship between internet use and mental health problems in children and young people. It discusses the associated risks, alongside the positive benefits of internet use.

As you progress, the course deals with assessing and treating young people's mental health concerns. It is important to understand that mental health problems in young people are idiosyncratic in nature, so they need to be treated in a way that is helpful to them personally. There is no “one size fits all”. You will also learn the importance of outcome monitoring and receiving feedback from the child or young person on the care they’ve received.

Half of mental health problems start before the age of 14. Schools are in a vital position to prevent mental health problems, reduce stigma and employ policies to prevent bullying and discrimination. You’ll learn about the many ways schools can support children and young people experiencing mental health problems. In addition to this, you’ll look at the benefits of peer support in schools and school-based counselling. These forms of early intervention can help to prevent the development of mental health problems.
