Mental Health - From Policy to Practice

Description
This book provides a critique of the achievements of the National Service Framework for Mental Health in England and Wales. The editors and contributors use their extensive experience and knowledge of mental health practice to analyse the effectiveness of developments in services and practice. They reflect on the 'new thinking' about how services should be organised and how practitoners should be educated and trained and provide insight into how the lessons learned may shape policy and practice in the future.

Reviews
“An excellent discussion of the background to current thinking puts contemporary practice into context and will appeal to a wide audience.”
