Abstract
- This paper details the findings and reflections of family therapy treatment outcomes for a British‐Chinese family using SCORE‐15, a reliable and valid systemic outcome measure developed in the UK. It aims to examine the clinical usefulness of SCORE‐15 through its application to a single case study. The two culture‐specific treatments were conducted at the Marlborough Cultural Therapy Centre (MCTC), which was part of the Marlborough Family Service in London. MCTC was a mental health specialist service for ethnic minorities in their preferred languages that operated for 18 years within the mainstream mental health setting of the National Health Service (NHS). The overall family functioning was found to have improved and problem severity decreased, apart from some aspects rated by the mother. Reflections and discussions with the family with regard to the SCORE‐15 findings facilitated understanding and feedback about clinical changes in the systemic intervention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
