Abstract
- In Japan, the number of patients with mental illness is increasing; therefore, the need for national measures, such as suicide prevention measures and measures against alcohol health disorders, and multiple social concerns and needs, such as depression and dementia problems, are increasing. As such, measures for mental health are emphasized. Mental health is a common issue; however, there is still prejudice regarding mental illness, and its understanding and awareness by local residents and medical staff need to be improved. The author introduced a medication self-management module in the psychiatric ward to improve medication adherence, and constructed a program for mental health literacy education in the faculty of pharmacy. This paper outlines these studies.
