Objective: Although it is widely accepted that inpatient psychiatric treatment of children and adolescents is effective, it is also essential to evaluate its effectiveness by assessing the treatment compliance following discharge and the persistence of treatment effects in the long run. The aim of this study is to assess the effectiveness of inpatient treatment provided in one of the rare units in our country via evaluation of the achievement of treatment goals, changes in risk assessment scores, treatment compliance following discharge, and psychological functioning as reflected in the current relationships with the family, peers and school.
