Mental health pharmacists aim is the safety of patients, by making sure that people who need drugs get them and take them at the optimum dose, and those that don't need drugs, don't get them.
Corporate membership is available.
Membership is growing and currently stands at 400. To facilitate net-working, a membership list is available to members on request, and a comprehensive survey of member's activities was carried out in 1998 and is available to members. It will aim to recognise good practice and promote raising of standards, through a five stage accreditation process. Five Founding Members have been elected and the CMHP will be launched in October 2000. For further information, please see the College of Mental Health Pharmacists website section.
