Abstract:
There is a lack of consensus over fundamental issues in public mental health in England. A move away from poorly evidenced 'well-being' policy approaches is needed. The authors have developed a more inclusive model using the World Health Organization's approach to public mental health. Public mental health policy makers must acknowledge the importance of psychiatry within the field.
