BACKGROUND: Research suggests that there are differences in the problems that are referred to Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) by White British and Asian families as well as differences in how these services are accessed. There is a need for more information about how different ethnic communities perceive and access CAMH services.METHOD: White British or Pakistani mothers of children between 0-20 years at an urban health centre were invited to complete a study-specific questionnaire written in English (with verbal translation provided when needed). Data were collected on awareness and experience of, and willingness to use CAMH services; severity of problems before referral is considered and additional factors that influence service use.RESULTS: In comparison to White British mothers, Pakistani mothers were found to be less likely to consider a referral for problems judged as mild or moderate. There was no difference for severe problems. Qualitative factors that would enhance the use of CAMH services by Pakistani mothers include the availability of culture and gender matched therapists, and better access to translation facilities.CONCLUSIONS: The study highlights service needs and expectations of mothers of Pakistani origin, and emphasises the need for relevant, inclusive and culturally sensitive services.
