Ensuring access to the specialist expertise of psychiatrists

The Ministry of Social Affairs and Health take it upon itself to ensure that each well-be-ing services county has enough specialist competence and services to offer its clients and patients according to their myriad psychiatric needs. More specialist training is needed on the detection of psychiatric multimorbidity and the prevention of suicides, which must be provided in collaboration with education providers and labour market operators. More psychiatrists are needed in the public health care system.
