Abstract
New ways of tackling the increased volume and complexity of emotional and behavioural problems are required in the face of demands from government, practitioners and parents. Policy imperatives have tended to focus on structural changes combined with calls for better cooperation between professionals in order to enhance service provision for troubled children. This article presents findings from a 2 year formative evaluation of a new multidisciplinary team offering a preventive resource within the child and adolescent mental health service. Team members were recruited from three different professional backgrounds. This description and discussion of their effectiveness in working together offers an innovative model of interprofessional care and provides valuable lessons for child and adolescent mental health services seeking to establish closer interprofessional working.
