À propos de ce contenu audio
In the final episode of the Paediatric Mini-Series, we focus on a rapidly growing challenge for healthcare providers — adolescent mental health. Adolescents are navigating identity, independence, and social pressures, all while being at higher risk of developing mental health conditions.
Dr Andrew Tagg shares insights on recognising when a young person is in crisis, communicating effectively, and using the HEADSSS screening tool to structure safe, supportive, and thorough psychosocial evaluations in the prehospital and acute care settings.
📊 Why It Matters: WHO reports that 1 in 7 adolescents experiences a mental disorder, and many never access help until crisis point.
A structured approach like HEADSSS helps clinicians move from small talk to meaningful assessment without missing key risks.🧰 Resources & Further Reading:
- Don’t Forget The Bubbles – HEEADSSS Tool
- Headspace (Australia) – Youth Mental Health Services
- YoungMinds (UK) – Adolescent Support and Advocacy
- WHO Adolescent Mental Health Overview
- Mental Health First Aid Training
The HEADSSS tool gives you a roadmap to guide delicate conversations, uncover hidden risks, and connect young people to the support they need — sometimes for the very first time.
