Innovative perspectives in youth health care.
A dedicated youth health service in an 'adolescent friendly' environment can provide a needed alternative to mainstream general practice for the large sub group of adolescents who require confidential management of their sexual health and psychological needs. Such a service has been operating in Melton, Victoria, since November 1993 under the name of the Backdoor Youth-Health Service.
