  Community-centred mental health care has become a controversial topic, and has forced health care professionals to assume a range of new roles and responsibilities. This text identifies these challenges, and promotes a multi-professional team approach to resolving them. The topics covered include financial aspects, day care rehabilitation, psychiatric emergencies, intervention, support for team members and the responsibility of the voluntary sector. The book is aimed particularly at community health professionals, social workers, and students following nursing degree programmes and the Project 2000 Mental Health Branch.
