内容説明
An easy to read, jargon-free introduction to mental health, this practical guide is written for qualified and non-qualified practitioners.
The authors explain key concepts in easily understandable language, accessible even to those with no prior knowledge of the subject. They detail the major mental health disorders and the issues and implications surrounding them, and include separate chapters on personality disorder, dual diagnosis and self-harm. They provide in-depth practical information on:
* the Mental Health Act
* diagnosis and medication
* risk assessment and management.
This guide is full of useful information, practical suggestions, and strategies for anyone working with people who are experiencing mental illness. It will prove invaluable to housing workers, support workers, probation officers, prison health care officers, student nurses and anyone coming in to contact with mental health issues.
