Mental health for primary care : a practical guide for non-specialists
Morris, Mark
Mental health for primary care : a practical guide for non-specialists - Boca Raton, FL : CRC Press, 2009
Psychological, biological and sociological background material is distilled, and restricted to primary care, to demystify the management of common problems and empower the reader to have a more rewarding and fun time at work and a better ability to cope with the ever-increasing demand and challenge of dealing with multiple physical and mental health issues often brought by a single individual to a time-limited consultation. This book provides an up-to-date guide to mental health for primary care workers who are not experts in the field. It is logically structured, providing a clear overview of causal factors before presenting individual conditions in a diagnostic hierarchy. Particular attention is given to areas where there has been a deficit in understanding or training, along with problems that are most frequently encountered and managed in primary care.
