Description
An account of the resource
BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization encourages the development of youth friendly services, yet little is known on how youth currently present in general practice. OBJECTIVE: To describe the perspectives, expectations, and service receipt of young people presenting to family doctors to inform the development of youth friendly services. DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey. PARTICIPANTS AND MEASUREMENTS: Consecutive young people attending 26 randomly selected practices were recruited in the waiting rooms. Standardized instruments were used to interview them before their consultation. RESULTS: Of 501 young people who were approached, 450 participated (91% participation rate). Most had respiratory (26%) or dermatological complaints (18%). When asked to assess their health status, 59% perceived they had neither a physical nor a mental illness. However, 43% stated they had fears about their health problem and 1 in 5 feared it could be life-threatening. Although only 10% presented with psychological complaints, 24% perceived they currently had a mental illness. The most common expectations were treatment (50%) and good communication (42%). Most youth were prescribed medication (60%), but 40% of those who received a prescription had not expected to receive a treatment. A follow-up appointment was offered to 57% of participants. CONCLUSIONS: This study identifies a gap between young people's perception of illness and their presentations to family doctors. It also highlights unexpected fears, and a mismatch between expectations and service receipt. These findings have implications for family medicine training and for clinical practice. They should inform the development of youth friendly services.

Description
An account of the resource
PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to explore the patterns of health services utilization among adults with chronic and complex physical disabilities of childhood, specifically cerebral palsy, spina bifida, and acquired brain injuries.METHODS. A cohort of 345 young adults who had graduated from the Bloorview MacMillan Children's Centre was identified. Their health care records were extracted from Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) and Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI) databases, for a four-year period. These data were analysed to estimate the frequency of out-patient physician visits and admissions to hospital.RESULTS. The mean age of the sample was 21.9 years (range 19.0-26.9 years). The results show that 95% of the sample visited a physician at least once per year, and 24% had a primary care physician. On average, these adults visited physicians 11.5 times per year (approximately once per month) and were admitted to hospital once every 6.8 years.CONCLUSIONS. These results suggest that adults with complex physical disabling conditions from childhood have ongoing health issues that require frequent service. Their admission rate is 9.0 times that of the general population, and few have a primary care physician. A new model of service may be necessary for this high-needs group.

An account of the resource
PURPOSE: To assess access to and use of health care by adolescents prior to their becoming pregnant. METHODS: An interviewer-administered questionnaire was completed by all pregnant adolescents (n = 65) entering the Rochester Adolescent Maternity Program (RAMP) between January and June 1994. Questions addressed access and utilization issues including routine care and other services used, and existence of a regular source of care prior to pregnancy. RESULTS: Sixty-one adolescents (94%) completed questionnaires. Almost all (93%) had made a doctor or clinic visit, and 77% had had a checkup in the prior year. Most had Medicaid (85%) or private insurance (13%). The median number of visits to a regular source of care was 2.0 (range 0-10). Most frequently reported sources of regular care were hospital clinics (43%), community health centers (26%), and private physician offices (15%). Two-thirds (66%) reported having used multiple sources of care. Of those who used other sources in addition to a primary care source, 40% used reproductive health clinics. Adolescents whose primary care source was a traditional physician's office were more likely to also use reproductive health clinics than those who reported using more comprehensive primary care sources. CONCLUSIONS: Most pregnant adolescents in this sample had previously used routine primary care, usually in hospital clinics or health centers. Many of those adolescents also use multiple sources of care, most often for reproductive services. Access to reproductive health services does not seem to have been a problem for these adolescents prior to their pregnancies.; PIP: An interviewer-administered questionnaire was administered to all 65 pregnant adolescents entering the Rochester Adolescent Maternity Program (RAMP) between January and June 1994 as part of a study to measure access to and the use of health care by respondents before they became pregnant. 61 (94%) young women completed the questionnaires. 93% had made a doctor or clinic visit and 77% had had a checkup in the prior year. 85% had Medicaid and 13% had private insurance. The median number of visits to a regular source of care was 2.0 in the range of 0-10. 43% reported receiving regular care from hospital clinics, 26% from community health centers, and 15% from private physician offices. 66% reported having used multiple sources of care. 40% of those who used other sources in addition to a primary care source used reproductive health clinics. Adolescents whose source of primary care was a traditional physician's office were more likely to also use reproductive health clinics than those who reported using more comprehensive primary care sources.
