Abstract:
This toolkit is written for frontline staff working with adult clients who have a combination of substance misuse and mental health problems. They may be working in a variety of settings in both the statutory and voluntary sectors. The impetus for the toolkit was the recognition that people working within substance misuse would benefit from a basic understanding of mental health services and vice versa. In addition, workers in a broad range of community-based services also provide relevant care including people in social services, housing, probation, prison services, primary care, hospital wards and Accident and Emergency.
