Public & Clinical Resources


When a young person's psychiatric diagnosis changes, this can cause confusion and upset. The PAEDS project, funded by the European Commission, developed practical resources that can be used by healthcare providers, parents, and young people themselves, to understand and explain diagnostic shifts. These resources are freely available for anyone to download and share.
