The very latest guidance notes for all professionals involved with the social and medical care of the mentally ill have been provided in the new edition of the Code of Practice (Mental Health Act 1983), published by TSO in March. This very latest edition and essential reference from the Department of Health provides guidance to registered medical practitioners, managers and staff of hospitals and mental nursing homes and approved social workers on how they should proceed when undertaking duties under the Mental Health Act 1983. It should also be considered by others working in health and social services (including the independent and voluntary sectors), and by the police.
