β¦ Synopsis
A comprehensive textbook of mental health and the primary care setting. Gives practical advice on how practitioners in primary care can best respond to psychiatric presentations. Primary care is the first port of call for people with mental health problems and it plays an increasingly important role in the provision of mental health care.A multidisciplinary team of 38 chapter authors give a wide range of clinical and research perspectives. It's designed so easier for GPs to use: jargon-free language, text broken up by summary boxes, key points summarised for each chapter, etc. RCPsych 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. Produced by the same editorial team who publish The British Journal of Psychiatry, they sell books for both psychiatrists and other mental health professionals; and also many written for the general public. Their popular series include the College Seminars Series, the NICE mental health guidelines and the Books Beyond Words series for people with intellectual disabilities. RCPsych publishes in all areas of psychiatry and mental health, including but not limited to: Clinical psychiatric practice Intellectual disability Mental health services for children, adolescents, adults and the elderly Psychopharmacology Psychotherapy Rehabilitation psychiatry Family mental health Service provision RCPsych Publications books can help with the following disorders: Addictions Affective disorders Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Bereavement Borderline personality disorder Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) Dementia Depression Eating disorders Perinatal psychiatric disorder Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) Psychosis Schizophrenia Sleep problems
