Preschool children have been largely neglected in the mental health treatment literature, although research has established that many behavioral and emotional disorders in children result from events occurring during the preschool years or are first manifested during this period.

This book overviews current therapeutic models and the environments of inpatient treatment for children and adolescents with mental health needs. The authors provide guidelines for practitioners so that they can make a well-informed choice for the child and the family on how and when to use such services as hospitals, group homes and residential treatment centres.
