Boost Your Practice: Enhancing Adolescent Mental Health Outcomes

Boost Your Practice: Enhancing Adolescent Mental Health Outcomes

The mental health of adolescents and young adults is a growing concern for practitioners worldwide. With one in five Canadians experiencing mental illness during their lifetime, and three-quarters of these cases beginning before the age of 24, it is crucial to address these issues early. A recent study titled "Health-related quality of life among adolescents and young adults with mood and anxiety concerns" offers valuable insights into this area.

The study conducted by Kazi et al. at the First Episode Mood and Anxiety Program (FEMAP) in London, Ontario, highlights the significant impairments in HRQOL among adolescents and young adults seeking care for mood and anxiety disorders. These findings underscore the need for timely access to healthcare services.
