Abstract:
Abstract Mental health is a critical component of overall well-being, and health practitioners play a pivotal role in its promotion, prevention, diagnosis, and treatment. This review explores the multifaceted impact of health practitioners on mental health, focusing on their roles in providing care, reducing stigma, and enhancing accessibility to mental health services. Furthermore, it highlights the challenges practitioners face, including inadequate training, resource constraints, and high levels of burnout. Emerging evidence underscores the effectiveness of practitioner-led interventions in

The debates related to the representation of the mentally ill in the media have been wide ranging over the last 20 years. Emergent representations have often been stigmatizing, claiming that the mentally ill are violent and dangerous. This study used an emergent methodological design to explore what the current representations of the mentally ill were and identify a case study from the available representations. It then examined the influence that the case study had on the thoughts and practice of experienced mental health practitioners. The study involved 8 practitioners and identified though

AbstractThis chapter stresses the collective nature of public health, defines public health ethics, and relates the latter to narrative ethics. The chapter offers four ways to define public health ethics; namely, through its problems, practice, procedure, and principles. Every area of Public Health Service poses ethics problems that involves either training issues, compliance with ethical rules and standards, or a utilitarian weighing of courses of action. The practice of public health ethics not only analyzes and addresses emergent ethical problems but also integrates ethics upstream into the
