Abstract:
:Paramedical personnel offer a ready reservoir of partially trained personnel who can assist in combating the ever-increasing problem of emotional disorders. A multi-disciplinary program of continuing education for these allied professionals is outlined. Four courses, Personality Development, Emotional and Mental Disorders, Skills and Techniques in Working with Patients and Families, and Sociological Factors in Mental Health, have been developed. The results of three pilot projects are summarized, and future plans and problems are outlined. Evaluation of projects indicates that formal learning of mental health information occurs and greater mutual respect and unity develop among multi-disciplinary participants.
