Collaborative Model and Better Mental Health Care

Annahita Ball

Young adults on hospital wards are relatively uncommon in an ageing society because only 12% of young adults report having a chronic illness or disability. But among younger people, mental health issues are still common. The two issues that young adults have the most trouble with are mental health and obesity, according to a recent study. Early intervention in psychosis teams, for example, has been demonstrated to operate better than traditional care models and to be more cost-effective. These teams are created expressly to meet the requirements of younger adults. Younger patients in the medical wards may arouse powerful feelings in the personnel, who frequently feel protective and may emotionally sympathise with the young patient's suffering. General practitioners must recognise typical signs of mental illness in young people, such as depression, willful self-harm, eating disorders, and substance abuse, in order to provide holistic therapy for these patients. For young people, health promotion is crucial in addition to illness treatment.
