A TEACHING PROGRAM IN PUBLIC HEALTH PSYCHIATRY
Abstract
We have discussed a teaching program in public health psychiatry from the point of view of a number of relevant issues in community practice and research. We have particularly stressed problems and issues in each of three areas, i.e., unmet psychiatric need, particularly in the lowest socioeconomic class, paths to treatment and the question of why people do or do not make use of psychiatric facilities and finally, the difficult and relatively new area of community organization and coordination of community resources for the complex variety of psychiatric disorders.
