School nurse program for early anxiety detection in children
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a school nurse-led program to spot early signs of anxiety in children aged 8–12 who often visit the nurse with physical complaints. The goal is to help identify anxiety early so children can get the right support.
