Liaison Psychiatry: Planning Services For Specialist Settings

E-Book Overview

Liaison psychiatry services have the potential to improve patient care and streamline medical services but are underdeveloped in many European health systems. This book follows on from the 1994 publication 'Liaison psychiatry: defining needs and planning services' and is planned as a practical guide to the development of services for a range of specialist settings. These include service in obstetrics, A&E, intensive care, pain clinics and trauma services. In addition there is guidance on the general principles of developing a case of need for services, and working with purchasers or commissioners of health care.The book will be of particular value to clinicians seeking to develop services in these areas, and those seeking evidence on the value of such services.Also available:Liaison Psychiatry: Defining Needs and Planning Services - ISBN 0902241699Handbook for Psychiatric Trainees - ISBN 1904671349 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.
