Historical, current, and future models of schools as health care delivery settings.

Abstract: This article describes the unmet health and mental health needs of children and youth, explores existing models of the school as a health care service delivery setting and describes the implications for the practice of psychology in schools. Since the delivery of health services in schools in the present has emerged in response to social needs from the past, the issue of schools as health care settings is explored from both a historical and contemporary perspective.

“…The existence of school‐based mental health clinics has been controversial over many decades because administrators often perceive these clinics to be too costly for schools to maintain (Carlson, Paavola, & Talley, 1995; Sedlak, 1997). Despite this and other disadvantages, the Memphis City Schools Mental Health Clinics project started in 1969 to provide a variety of prevention, treatment, and health promotion interventions (Carlson et al, 1995; Pfeiffer & Reddy, 1998). In the 1970s, school‐based mental health centers (SMHCs) emerged, with well over 1,000 in existence by the early 2000s (Weist et al, 2003).…”

“…In the 1970s, school‐based mental health centers (SMHCs) emerged, with well over 1,000 in existence by the early 2000s (Weist et al, 2003). SMHCs offer an array of services to students, ranging from behavioral health to physical health care (Carlson et al, 1995; Meyers & Swerdlik, 2003), regardless of special education status. Although sometimes staffed by school psychologists, other school personnel, such as social workers, counselors, clinical psychologists, and psychiatrists, often provide mental health services (Brown & Bolen, 2003).…”

“…Both mentor and student teachers mentioned a contact system and a referral system, which are currently in place in their schools, as ideal organizational schemes. The perspective of teachers concerning organization of services may evolve as innovative approaches, such as school health delivery systems (Carlson, Paavola, & Talley, 1995;Illback, Cobb, & Joseph, 1997;Pryzwansky, 1994;Short & Talley, 1997), are put in place.…”

“…there is and will continue to be greater need for observation, curriculum-based assessment, and validation of interventions (Dwyer, 1997). It is, therefore, imperative that school psychologists expand the range of services they provide and coordinate their activities with student support staff and other professionals who deliver health and social services (Carlson, Paavola, & Talley, 1995;Dwyer, 1996;Tharinger, 1995). Success in these endeavors depends on professional collaboration and the implementation of a consultative role.…”
