The Interventions
  • Mapping i.e., identify symptoms and causes

  • Assessment of what type of intervention that is needed

  • Health promoting intervention i.e., highlights and strengthens what works for the individual

  • Interventions to ensure that health promoting interventions reach children at risk

  • Preventive interventions

  • Referrals of acute or extensive needs

  • Support/treatment i.e., all interventions that intend to increase wellbeing

  • Consult support to other organisations i.e., to educate about mapping, support, and referrals

  • Offer the right help at the right time i.e., availability and early discovery

  • Child perspective i.e., the child’s best at interest and to involve the child

  • Support for the transition into adulthood

  • Studies about ongoing work and not specific interventions

Collaborative partners

  • Non-profit organisations

  • Voluntary work

  • Student interns from vocational education

  • Studies with more collaborative partners than schools, social services and health care services

Arena of the intervention

Problem
  • Mental ill-health
