15. Future development (Rethink, 2014)
All doctors should take responsibility, when prescribing medications for people with mental health issues, to
treat them holistically and monitor their physical health changes and needs
There should be appropriate screening, assessment and physical health checks for all persons with
identified mental illness, including attention to dental health care
All mental health programs and policy areas should report on physical
health screening, assessment and monitoring for all mental health
consumers in receipt of services.
Dietary and exercise programs should be an essential part of what mental health services provide
comprehensive mental health training among healthcare staff would
improve attitudes and morale
clearer communication channels between various health-
professionals
Development and dissemination of Physical Health Check tool
easily accessible manual and online physical health
resources
There should be adequate monitoring of weight and frequent medication
reviews.
