Abstract
AbstractImproving the management of depression in primary careWith the overarching aim of making the management of depression easier, Lewisham PCT have implemented a multifaceted programme to develop primary health care workers' skills, knowledge and resources so as to improve their service to patients with depression. Now in its second year, the programme has, and still is, constantly evolving. This article outlines the programme's key messages and components during its first year, and briefly refers to its expansion and future aims.Primary care mental health services for 16‐19 year oldsStudies suggest that many young people who would benefit from accessing mental health services do not do so, as they fall into the gap between child and adult services. This report outlines the results of a project carried out within Bury Mental Health Services to establish what young people want from primary care mental health services and whether current service provision meets their needs.
