Qatar Community Mental Health Care: Achievements and Challenges
Abstract:
Guided by international best practice and evidence-based medicine, the Qatar mental health service has undergone a major transformation in the last two decades, replacing the institution-based service with an accessible multidisciplinary community-based service. In this paper, we provide a brief historical background to mental health services in Qatar, and the progress and development towards community-based mental health-care provision. We also explore the challenges facing this new model of care in Qatar including social and cultural sensitivities, and the various solutions adopted to overcome these challenges. We outline the comprehensive plans envisaged to further develop Qatar community mental health services, including the provision of accessible, integrated and multimodal mental health care within primary care settings.
