Abstract
Relatives have an increasingly important role in providing care in the community to people with mental health problems, yet numerous studies have highlighted a lack of support from health care professionals. GEOFF BRENNAN describes the findings of a study to investigate the information provided to relatives of patients in one trust, and suggests solutions to the ethical and professional dilemmas raised.
