| Abstract: |
Aim of review is to determine if published literature supports the hypothesis that primary care is a suitable setting in which mental-health problems in adolescents can be prevented by early detection and treatment. When offered, adolescent health checks have been well received. Primary care offers a setting for the prevention and detection of mental-health problems in adolescents. (Author/JDM) |
