Mental health for primary care : a practical guide for non-specialists [E-Book] - 1 online resource (xiii, 204 pages) : illustrations (black and white)
Also issued in print: 2009.
Includes bibliographical references and index.
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.
