New 5-day intensive course in Public Mental Health available at Warwick Medical School
Public Mental Health and Wellbeing: Measurement, Determinants and Promotion 28 February - 4 March 2011
Today's public health practitioners need to understand the interplay between mental and physical health, and the impact on healthy lifestyles to ensure the success of a range of public health programmes - including those that aim to prevent heart disease, cancer, and other long-term conditions.
If you are engaged in promoting public health then this new Public Mental Health course will provide you with a theoretical and practical grounding in current issues in public mental health.
This new course is the first of its kind in the UK and draws on unique research currently being undertaken at the University of Warwick. The development of this module has been sponsored by the West Midlands Teaching Public Health Network and is supported by the National Mental Health Development Unit Wellbeing Programme.
