Children in UK mental health hospitals 'not improving', parents say More than half of parents with children in mental health hospitals do not feel their condition has improved as a result of treatment, while nearly a quarter say it has actually deteriorated, according to a survey.
The research was based on responses from 448 parents whose children have been in mental health hospitals in England over the last five years.
The study, carried out by the children’s mental health charity YoungMinds and the National Autistic Society, found that 54% of parents said they had seen no improvement, while 24% said their offspring’s mental health had got worse. The Guardian
