Mental health stigma within healthcare settings can have a negative impact on a person’s access to and experience of mental health services, and so can the impact on the support they receive, which can have an adverse effect on future help-seeking. Addressing mental health stigma in healthcare settings is fundamental to delivering and future-proofing quality healthcare services and for achieving optimal health outcomes for all.
The aim of the anti-stigma module is to provide staff with a deeper understanding of the stigma faced by people with mental health problems within the service, with the goal of improving future experiences in a positive and collaborative manner.
