Children and Young People’s Mental Health equips nurses and healthcare professionals with the essential skills and competencies needed to deliver effective assessment, treatment and support to children and young people with mental health problems and disorders, and their families. Drawing on McDougall’s Child and Adolescent Mental Health Nursing and taking the Cavendish Report and Willis Commission into account, this new textbook has been designed to ensure those working in CAMHS can continue to provide a high quality, evidence-based service. The book explores best practice in a variety of settings and addresses issues such as eating disorders, self–harm, ADHD, forensic mental health issues and misuse of drugs and alcohol in children and young people, as well as child protection, clinical governance, safeguarding and legal requirements. Furthermore, with young people contributing directly to several chapters, the book reflects the importance of involving them in planning, delivering and evaluating CAMHS services. It is essential reading for all health and social care professionals and students working with children and young people, particularly those working in specialist child and adolescent mental health settings.

The mental health of children and young people is in the spotlight as prevalence rates increase across all age ranges and ready access to specialist mental health services and preventative services proves difficult or non-existent. Children and young people are more stressed at school and, when they leave, the transition to adulthood can be more difficult and extend beyond late teens and early twenties. While good practice exists, the complications of modern-day living raise new challenges for the mental well-being of our young people from a very early age onwards.
