Mental health problems and worries are common among infants,
children and adolescents in every part of the world. This book is a
practical manual for primary healthcare professionals, teachers and
anyone who works with children - especially in places where
specialist psychiatric care is not available. After giving the
reader an overview of child mental health problems, the manual goes
on to deal with the various developmental, behavioural and
emotional problems that arise in as many as 10% of the youth
population. For each problem it first provides a case study and
then describes how to find out more about a child with this
problem. It suggests what can be done to help the child and their
family. It also examines the mental health aspects of childhood
maltreatment and exposure to natural or man-made disasters. Covers
problems that health workers and teachers in low- and middle-income
countries often have to deal with. Written in simple language with
many case examples and pictures. The only comprehensive book on
mental healthcare in young people for those with no access to
specialist medical advice. This book is intended for anyone who
works with children or young people, but who does not have
specialist training in mental health problems. This includes:
primary care doctors and nurses, community health workers and
teachers.
