Abstract:
By analyzing the scope and demands of mental health service in general hospitals, the authors point out that at present domestic general hospitals are confronted with such problems as insufficiency of resources for mental health service, low recognition rate of dysphrenia, and lack of systematic consultations and liaison in psychiatric work. Then they put forward a number of measures for improving mental health service in general hospitals: ①establishing a department of psychiatry in each general hospital; ②widely conducting consultations so as to maintain a strong liaisom in psychiatric work; ③genuinely achieving the transformation of the medical mode; ④strengthening education in psychological medicine and the spread of popular science so as to broaden the channel and coverage of mental health service and meet the needs of reform and development of the health cause in the contemporary era.
