Abstract

Given the wide range of diagnostic presentations treated in partial hospital programs, finding efficient ways to identify and measure progress on the chief concerns of consumers in these settings is important. The current study uses a self-administered version of the Top Problems Assessment to describe treatment targets identified by youth and their caregivers presenting for care at an adolescent partial hospital setting. Caregiver-youth agreement on these chief concerns upon admission and predictors of agreement were explored. About one-third (34.65%) of caregiver-youth pairs did not match on any target problems. Although anxiety and depression were the most commonly cited top problems in this sample, caregivers and youth exhibited disagreement on these domains. Treatment teams in acute care settings such as a partial hospital program can benefit from careful assessment surrounding the initial goals of treatment as youth and their caregivers may not agree on the referral problems upon entering a program.
