| Abstract: | Background Supplementary prescribing for mental health nurses was first introduced in the UK in 2003. Since then, a number of studies
have reported stakeholders' perceptions of the success of the initiative. However, there has been little experimental research
conducted into its effectiveness. This paper reports findings from the first known study to compare the cost and clinical
impact of mental health nurse supplementary prescribing to independent medical prescribing. |
