Περιγραφή
Mental Health: A Person-centred Approach equips students with the tools they need to provide exceptional person-focused care when supporting improved mental health of diverse communities.The third edition has been updated and restructured to provide a more logical and comprehensive guide to mental health practice. It includes new chapters on trauma-informed care, different mental health conditions and diagnoses, suicide and self-harm and the mental health of people with intellectual or developmental disabilities. Significant updates have been made to the chapters on the social and emotional well-being of First Nations Australians and mental health assessment. Taking a narrative approach, the text interweaves personal stories from consumers, carers and workers with lived experience. Each chapter contains ‘Translation to Practice’ and ‘Interprofessional Perspective’ boxes, reflection questions and end-of-chapter questions and activities to test students’ understanding of key theories. Written by experts in the field, Mental Health remains an essential, person-centred resource for mental health students.
