Psychiatric care is delivered by a wide range of workers (psychiatrists, hospital nurses, community psychiatric nurses, occupational therapists, psychologists, social workers, counsellors and general practitioners) who work as teams with some patients and as individuals with others. Health authority resources for psychiatric care are widely distributed among facilities both hospital-based (wards, day hospitals, out-patient departments, social work departments, occupational therapy departments) and community-based (community psychiatric nursing departments, community mental health centres and facilities funded jointly with social services and voluntary agencies).
