Working with Ethnicity, Race and Culture in Mental Health

Autor Hari Sewell
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 oct 2008
This book enables front line practitioners to understand why it is important to consider the specific needs of Black and minority ethnic (BME) people in mental health settings. It offers practical guidance on how practitioners can take positive steps to improve the quality of their work and their relationships with BME service users, and ultimately how to improve outcomes for BME people. By advocating the practice of recognizing the individuality of each service user, this book provides practitioners with the tools and information they need to work fairly and effectively. With case examples of organizations that have achieved a quality of delivery that is valued by BME people, and exercises that guide practitioners into making links between theory and their individual practice, this is invaluable reading for professionals working in mental health.
