A descriptive survey regarding adolescents' knowledge
and use of local health related services and service providers was
undertaken using a two stage probability sample. Two hundred and fifty
three adolescents aged 14 and 15 years, attending eight of the 16 mainstream secondary schools in Stoke-on-Trent, England, were randomly
selected. They were interviewed confidentially, using a semistructured
questionnaire. They had used various service providers; knowledge of
some local health services was poor. The preferred service provider
varied with the nature of the problem. Adolescents had clear views
regarding the nature of services they would like to see provided.
Factors the adolescents associated with confidentiality were
identified. Adolescents need information about local services. Issues
they associate with lack of confidentiality should be addressed. Their preferences for care must be taken into account in developing future services.
