What is a Mental Health Practitioner?
Mental health practitioners provide GPs and other primary care staff with timely support on the best ways to help people with complex mental health needs.
MHPs provide high quality mental health care in a less stigmatising environment at the right time, reducing adverse outcomes for those suffering from mental health problems, as well as providing consistency of care for those individuals transitioning between services
