Information for Mental Health Workers

This section provides information relevant to workers in the Mental Health field when working with families where a parent has a mental illness.

Check how family-friendly your mental health inpatient service is by comparing it with the COPMI 'Mental Health Inpatient Service Family Friendly Checklist'(204kb). This checklist has been developed from information provided by parents with a mental illness, their partners, support people and children during COPMI consultations in 2002 and with input from service providers.
