Activity Outline
In this article, optometrists Neil Retallic and Sheena Tanna-Shah explore how we can easily adopt our best practice approach to achieve these aims as effectively as possible.
As such, it is an ECP’s duty of care to take a holistic approach to providing patient care, by proactively working to identify signs of declining mental health, then recommending and advising on appropriate care and support services.
Eye care professionals (ECPs) are well placed to spot the signs of mental health challenges in patients, some of which will be associated with ocular manifestations.
Learning Objectives
- To understand how to adapt our eye care approach for those with poor health and well-being issues
- To understand how to identify potential ocular manifestation in patients with health and well-being issues
- To understand how to communicate effectively with patients with health and well-being issues
