Mental Health, Behavioral and Developmental Issues for Youth in Foster Care
Curr Probl Pediatr Adolesc Health Care.
2015 Oct.
Abstract
Youth in foster care represent a unique population with complex mental and behavioral health, social-emotional, and developmental needs. For this population with special healthcare needs, the risk for adverse long-term outcomes great if needs go unaddressed or inadequately addressed while in placement. Although outcomes are malleable and effective interventions exist, there are barriers to optimal healthcare delivery. The general pediatrician as advocate is paramount to improve long-term outcomes.
