Using a Digital Application for Adolescents in Dropout of Care in Mental Health : Facilitate the Return in Classic Care With Telepsychiatry, Tchats, Forums and a Home Medical Team.

Using a Digital Mental Health Application in the Adolescent's Care Pathway.

Clinical experience has shown that adolescents have great difficulties in getting to mental health care centers. The investigators want to find a specific way to follow up with the adolescent public. This study sets up a digital mental health application offering a tele-consultation space, a chat space with mental health professionals, a forum space, a news and therapeutic education space. The objective of the study is to evaluate the acceptance of the digital tool by the adolescent between 11 and 18 years old. To do this, the investigators determine the number of connections to the tool during the 6 months of support.

The purpose of the CPP application is the creation of an innovative psychiatric device combining a digital application of mental health for adolescents with a mobile team, anchored within the I03 pole of the Public Health Establishment of Ville-Evrard.

This Together digital application includes a space for news, chat, peer-to-peer forum and video consultation. We propose an action-research protocol because this project was born of questions related to the terrain raising the problem of the difficulty of access to the care of adolescents in the territory of Pole 93I03.

Action research is aimed at adolescents aged 11 to 18, whose medical, paramedical and school partners have observed mental suffering (ill-being, inappropriate behaviour, dropping out of school) but who are not or no longer enrolled in mental care. It aims to use a digital application backed by a mobile team to improve access to the mental health care system for adolescents.

The research issue would be formalized in these terms: would the Together mental health application, combined with a mobile team, allow access to a path of care for the adolescent?

HYPOTHESIS We hypothesize that adolescents will accept the digital tool, using it regularly and that this will ultimately facilitate access to mental care.

OBJECTIVES The main objective of this study is to assess the acceptance of the digital tool by the young person. Acceptance here depends on the regular use of the Together app by the teenager. The secondary objectives are to assess the percentage of adolescents starting face-to-face management within sector structures; the percentage of adolescents observing a better-be, to observe the quality of the support via the dual device digital application/mobile team.

METHOD The action-research takes place over a year, with a panel of 50 teenagers. After a pre-inclusion interview by the partners to talk about the research-action device to the teenager, he is offered an inclusion interview informing him of the research, the consent and the use of the digital application. Different evaluations are then spent at different times of action research to evaluate the main objective and secondary objectives.
