Primary Care Psychiatry

Primary Care Psychiatry, within the context of Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, involves mental health specialists collaborating with primary care providers to address the emotional and psychological needs of patients. This approach ensures that individuals receive comprehensive care, addressing both physical and mental health issues simultaneously. Psychiatrists may provide guidance on diagnosis, treatment, and management of mental health conditions, helping to improve overall patient outcomes. By integrating mental health into primary care, this model enhances patient accessibility to services and promotes holistic well-being.
