Used in a generic module that covers concepts of mental health. The book is ideally written to give student nurses from other fields an insight into how MH practice is relevant and helpful to them as professionals

A welcome updated version of essential aspects of mental health care. User friendly and easy to navigate. I particularly liked the inclusion of positive psychology interventions to balance out the more traditional and expected interventions.
