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

Abstract:

The phrase “standard of care” is primarily a legal term representing what procedure a reasonable person (i.e., health practitioner) would administer to patients across similar circumstances. One major concern for health practitioners is delivering and advocating for treatments not defined as a standard of care. While providing such treatments may meet certain ethical imperatives, doing so may unwittingly trigger medical malpractice litigation fears from practitioners. Apprehension to deviate, even slightly, from the standard of care may (seem to) put the practitioner at significant risk for li
