Mental health professionals ’ awareness of the parental functioning of persons with severe mental disorders: a retrospective chart study
Conclusion:Lack of awareness among MHPs to their patients ’ parental functioning is not specific to a certain profession and may be attributed to patients (e.g., reluctance to disclose relevant information) or to MHPs (e.g., lack of training). Awareness of family and parental functioning by MHPs working with persons with SMI should be part of a standard procedure, integrated into policy and training.
