CHENNAI: The Schizophrenia Research Foundation (SCARF) will launch a diploma course in mental health care and counselling, intended for medical and allied health professionals.
The one-year course -- to be launched in July 2016 -- will provide practical training in psycho-social rehabilitation, including patient and family counselling, and psychological interventions along with their theoretical aspects. The programme will also train people to work at the community level.
"Given the paucity of mental health professionals in India, we anticipate that this course will help fulfill an important gap and improve the skills of mental health professionals to offer valuable inputs to those who need it," said Dr R Thara, director, SCARF.
Those who have completed/completing their bachelors in psychology, social work, nursing and other allied medical specialties, doctors and interested care givers can apply.
