Description
Anna Coughtrey and co-authors published a 2024 study of mental health care delivered inside children's epilepsy clinics by staff who are not mental health specialists. Children with epilepsy often face anxiety, depression, or behavior problems, yet struggle to reach care. A program called MICE trains clinic staff to deliver a flexible talk therapy for these problems, backed by training and supervision. The team checked how faithfully 21 trained staff delivered it.
Records covered 2,269 sessions with 166 young people, and experts rated recordings of 251 sessions. Staff followed the therapy plan closely and delivered it with skill. Where they strayed, they changed the order of steps rather than the content. The authors conclude that clinic staff can be trained to give sound mental health care, and call for work linking this faithfulness to outcomes.
