Petition · past parliament

Give all NHS staff proper training in Mental Health.

Rejected 16 signatures

What the petition asks

I have found, through having to attend A&E and GP's surgery's that they do not have proper experience in Mental Health, and that can lead to isolation and the proper care and treatment needed.

Why it was rejected

There was already a petition about this issue. Duplicates are rejected so signatures collect in one place.

All healthcare staff to be trained on treating those with mental health issues.
