OBJECTIVE: To explore care recipients (patients' and their caregivers) and care providers (healthcare providers' and law enforcement officers') perspectives on paediatric mental health presentations to emergency departments, to identify challenges to care.
METHODS: Secondary qualitative analysis of free-text responses from a Delphi study conducted within the Paediatric Research in Emergency Departments International Collaborative (PREDICT) network in 2022. The original Delphi process aimed to identify research themes and key data points for child and adolescent mental health ED presentations; however, a large number of additional free-text responses were received. The primary aim of this specific study was to identify major categories using the General Inductive Approach (GIA) of these free-text responses to explore the experiences, service delivery and perceived challenges of care recipients and care providers. Patients were recruited from 12 EDs across three Australian states, and pre-hospital services (two police and three ambulance departments) across four Australian states.
RESULTS: A total of 184 participants provided responses (36 care recipients and 148 care providers). Three main categories are described: (1) care continuity and communication gaps, (2) challenges in the ED environment and (3) need for improved training and education and behavioural support.
CONCLUSIONS: Care recipients and care providers identified challenges in service coordination, clinician readiness and the ED environment. Strengthening communication, expanding training, reducing sensory overload and improving privacy in physical EDs and improving links to community care could enhance patient experiences and outcomes.
