Forum members - I am organising a teaching session around mental health act and mental health law to take place in a monthly interface meeting I hold in my primary care network (London based), attended by GPs and other primary care staff.

What topics - if any - do you wish primary care knew more about? What would you want to share/teach if you were providing the training?

I am of course gathering insight from primary care staff about what they would like to know more about but I am interested to hear from forum members what they think is relevant.
