Abstrakt: This curriculum is designed with the expectation of considerable involvement by family physicians in mental health care delivery. Psychiatry education is initiated early, before attitudes become fixed, to emphasize self-reliance and mental health problem-solving skills, to make the learning experience longitudinal, and to integrate psychiatric training into the rest of the residents' curriculum. Seminars, clinical experience, and liaison with a mental health team are all utilized in the training design. The effectiveness of this training program will be studied over time to obtain needed data about the best teaching model for the mental health role of the family physician.
