Late last year I received an email from a GP in our network who is working in NSW.
He had taken the time to carefully synthesise the World Health Organisation’s (WHO) Community Guidance on mental health services which highlights examples from around the world where communities, services, hospitals, networks, homes, institutions and support groups are collaborating with people and families in innovative and inspiring ways. They are driving change in how mental health care is thought about and delivered.
