ment for the disturbed child. This
means that the child has the oppor
tunity to progress up or down. He
may move from long-term to short
term care.
For example, if a child were to
progress from long-term to short-term
care, his record would probably in
clude the following (in order of
progress) :
1. began treatment at Murdoch
Child Psychiatric Unit
2. progressed to the Umstead Ado
lescent Unit at Butner
3. counseled at the Durham Child
Guidance Clinic, Inc.
4. enrolled at Wright School
5. entered Duke Hospital for short
term hospitalization
The director of each of these Con
tinuum of Care Units has an appoint
ment in the Department of P.sy-
chiatry at Duke Medical Center.
There are some interesting and
rather revealing statistics to be seen
in the Child Guidance Clinic’s
‘ ‘ Manual. ’ ’ The latest statistics show
that; more boys are counseled at the
Clinic than girls; half of the eliildren
counseled are from 6 to 12-years old;
and the highest number of referrals
are “self-referrals.”
Dr. Fowler estimates that in the
1964-1965 fiscal year, the Clinic will
handle about 440 cases. This will
mean approximately 8,000 interviews.
An hour interview is usually given
every week to the child being coun
seled by the Clinic; and, accord
ing to routine, for every session the
child has with the psychiatrist, the
parents have a session with the psy
chiatric social worker.
All of the several and varied func
tions of the Clinic cannot be men
tioned here; but no matter how dif
ferent iu nature the functions may be,
the child is the ultimate center of
each, as hope for greater understand
ing of the emotionally disturbed pre
vails.
