Abstract
Combining all perspectives, we found that the main service needs were: 1) focus on youth-professional relationship; 2) agency; 3) holistic and adjusted care delivery; 4) efficient coordination; 5) focus on the individual; 6) continuity of care. Our findings enrich the knowledge about service needs of adolescents with MCN and are found to be in line with the framework of needs-led child and youth care: continuous focus on clients' needs, participation in the care process and professionals' displays of needs-led attitudes and skills. We also highlight the importance of integrating the voices of adolescents, their parents, and professionals in research, care delivery planning and implementation.
