The aim of the Mental Health Strategic Work Programme is to:

Learn from experience of previous NHS QIS initiatives in mental health
Adopt a 'quality improvement' approach which will help mental health services in the implementation of the Mental Health (Care & Treatment) (Scotland) Act 2003
Focus on outcomes for individual users, building on the results of an audit project supported by NHS QIS
Develop an information culture where up to date information is appropriately shared and based on a common data set
Accredit the development of locally agreed Integrated Care Pathways.

The young persons questionnaire had to be clear and easy to follow with the illustrations adding interest to keep the young persons attention. The Adult questionnaire had to resemble the young person's one but in a much more simplified manner.
