The assessment and management of mental health disorders remains challenging for general practice<br />
and primary care. This presentation will bring together a number of themes in mental health care to<br />
provide a framework for general practice management.<br />
Topics will include:<br />
• The management of anxiety and depression. The present distinction between anxiety and depression<br />
is largely artificial has has meant that we have tended to under treat anxiety symptoms.<br />
• What exactly do we mean by Medically Unexplained Symptoms and what do we do about it?<br />
“Medically unexplained symptoms”are an important part of medical practice, yet our understanding<br />
of appropriate classification and management remains limited. A new framework for assessment and<br />
management will be suggested.<br />
• Mental health in childhood and adolescence.<br />
• Psychological therapies – do they work and is there any difference between<br />
them? What is a brief brief intervention and what should it include ?<br />
