G. Presting et al., DOCUMENTATION OF CHILD AND YOUTH PSYCHIAT RY - EXPERIENCES FROM A MULTI-CENTERED STUDY, Praxis der Kinderpsychologie und Kinderpsychiatrie, 44(1), 1995, pp. 9-14
Reasons for the need for a coordinated multi-centered documentation fo
r quality safeguarding are given. Based upon experiences with patient
documentation, where 13 child and youth psychiatries in the German sta
tes Lower Saxony and Bremen participated for one year, problems with a
documentation system are shown and discussed. In conclusion recommend
ations are given for carrying out such studies, which will become more
important in the framework of quality safeguarding in child and youth
psychiatries.
