Ethnicity: An Agenda for Mental Health

Description

This book sets the scene for identifying and meeting the mental health needs of Black and other minority ethnic groups. Clinicians, researchers, academics, hospital managers, commissioners and voluntary organisation workers come together to discuss the problems in health care delivery and ways of moving the agenda forward. In addition to multi-disciplinary working, the key emphasis here is in involving commissioners and voluntary organisations in deciding how best to meet the needs of the communities.Also AvailablePromoting Mental Health Internationally - ISBN 1901242374OSCEs in Psychiatry - ISBN 1904671179RCPsych Publications is the publishing arm of the Royal College of Psychiatrists (based in London, United Kingdom), which has been promoting excellence in mental health care since 1841.
