Abstract

Adolescent clients of a Teen Health Clinic were surveyed to determine those aspects of the service that were considered crucial to patient acceptance and program continuance. A simple one-page questionnaire enabled the clients to express their feelings about personnel, services, environment, and educational materials used in the clinic. Eighty-five percent of the clients expressed positive reactions to the clinic, while only 25.5% offered negative statements. Most respondents indicated clinic staff as the feature they liked most about the service and mentioned routine clinical activities as the part they liked least. Of the topics on which teenage clients wanted more information, 68% indicated that they wanted factual data rather than information about feelings, emotions, or relationships.
