Patient-centered access to mental health care at selected life-course stages: a scoping review using the Levesque framework

Background

The Levesque patient-centered access framework links five service dimensions with five corresponding population abilities, from recognizing need to engaging with care. We synthesized its substantive applications to mental-health access among pregnant and postpartum people, children and adolescents aged 0-17 years, and adults aged 65 years or older.
