Abstract:
South Africans suffer from mental trauma because of their experiences under apartheid and their continuing struggles with poverty and HIV and AIDS. There is a serious need for mental healthcare. INGE PETERSEN and ARVIN BHANA look at policy that has focused on decentralising and integrating mental health services into district primary healthcare, but say more focused investment is necessary.
