Abstract:
The specialist psychiatric services available in India is insufficient to meet the mental health needs of the country. Training of general practitioners in psychiatry through short courses is one of the remedial strategies. In 1982-83, an ICMR Multi-Centre Project of Training in Psychiatry for Non-Psychiatrist Primary Care Doctors was successfully completed at Bangalore, Hyderabad and Vellore using the training methods developed at NIMHANS. This paper describes the training programme and the results.
