The psychological health and wellbeing of children and young people is a joint priority for the Department for Education and the Department of Health and this indicator, the effectiveness of CAMHS, forms part of the vital signs indicator set for primary care trusts (VSB12). The indicator measures local authorities’ self-assessment across the country against four questions, covering a range of areas of provision, each with a 1 to 4 rating. This generates a total possible score of 16. The last results for services as at 31 December 2009 were published in April 2010. This publication refers to services as at 31 December 2010.
