Policies and Practices for Mental Health in Europe
14/11/2008 - Submitted by: Tilia Bousios
A report published by WHO Regional Office for Europe and co-funded by the European Commission, provides data not hitherto available on mental health policy and practice across the European Region. It also highlights important information gaps.
Policies and practices for mental health in Europe allows for country to country comparisons on indicators such as numbers of psychiatrists, financing, community services, training of workforce, prescription of anti-depressants and representation of users and carers. Data for the 42 Member States involved was obtained from ministries of health.
