School-based Approaches to Reducing the Duration of Untreated Psychosis - 14/03/15
, Sharon Hoover Stephan, PhD b, L. Elliot Hong, MD c, Gloria Reeves, MD bRésumé |
Students with emerging psychosis often experience delays in diagnosis and treatment that impact mental health and academic outcomes. School systems have tremendous potential to improve early identification and treatment of adolescent psychosis. As a community-based resource, schools can support outreach, education, and screening for adolescents with psychosis and engage identified students and their families for treatment. The concept of duration of untreated psychosis (DUP; the gap between symptom onset and treatment initiation) in adolescent psychosis and the potential role of schools in reducing DUP are reviewed. Future directions for clinical care and research needed to support school-based interventions are proposed.
