Individuals with a fragility fracture and a prescription for bone active medication have a positive perception of the medication but do not associate it with fracture risk reduction.

Unlabelled: Most participants reported a positive perception of bone active medication despite sustaining a fracture while taking the medication, reporting medication side effects, or having a healthcare provider stop the prescription. Participants did not appear to connect the medication to fracture risk, suggesting this connection should be emphasized by healthcare providers.

Objective: Our purpose was to examine perceptions about bone active medication from individuals with a fragility fracture and a prescription for bone active medication.

Mental health clinical pathways for children and young people with long-term health conditions: A systematic review.

Amidst calls for the prioritisation of integrated mental and physical health care for young people, multidisciplinary CPWs have been proposed as a step towards closer integration. There is very limited evidence around CPWs for young people with mental and physical health needs, necessitating a review of the literature.
