Abstract | Background: This study describes the experience of implementing a screening, monitoring, and referral to treatment (SMARTT) initiative at an urban middle school school-based health center. Methods: Retrospective data were collected for adolescents screened with the Pediatric Symptom Checklist-17-Y. At-risk adolescents having unmet health needs were offered a mental health referral, and those that declined a mental health referral were offered a primary care monitoring (PCM) visit with the medical provider. Chi-square analyses were used to evaluate differences in screening and outcomes by age, sex, and race/ethnicity. Results: One out of four adolescents had a positive PSC-17-Y or negative screen with other identified concerns. Approximately half of these at-risk adolescents accepted a mental health referral, and 86% of those who declined agreed to the PCM visit. More than two-thirds of the PCM group did not need continued monitoring and support at follow-up, and 85.4% of youth who had a mental health assessment accepted mental health services. Conclusions: The SMARTT initiative successfully demonstrated that co-located and integrated mental health services can enhance access and connection to mental health services for at-risk youth. In addition, PCM visits were found to be an effective option for youth who declined mental health referrals. (As Provided). |
