In recent years, the Indian government has been promoting healthcare with an insufficient evidence base, or which is non-evidence-based, alongside delivery of evidence-based care by untrained practitioners, through supportive legislation and guidelines. The Mental Health Care Act, 2017, is a unique example of a law endorsing such practices. In this paper, we aim to highlight the positive and negative implications of such practices for the delivery of good quality mental healthcare in India.

Despite improvements in the delivery of care for adolescent mental and behavioral conditions since the first edition of this book, many challenges remain. This concluding chapter highlights some of the most pressing issues. These include the need for more mental health care practitioners, a greater evidence base for the treatment of adolescent conditions, and more focus on reducing family poverty. Given the high rates of gun violence, including homicides and suicides, efforts are needed to reduce access to these weapons. Promising directions in research and the need for a national youth development strategy are also discussed.

A huge gap exists between the production of evidence and its take-up in clinical practice settings. To fill this gap, treatment guidelines, based on explicit assessments of the evidence base, are commonly employed in several fields of medicine, including schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders. It remains unclear, however, whether treatment guidelines have any impact on provider performance and patient outcomes, and how implementation should be conducted to maximise benefit.
