Resource of the Month: Mental Health

The mental health needs of our patients make themselves known all over our organization—in emergency, primary care, spiritual care, inpatient and outpatient. To assist healthcare providers and patients with these needs, Library and Patient Education Services provides a variety of mental health resources. The Health Sciences Library provides professional level online resources and textbooks. The Mooney libraries have a wide selection of mental health materials intended for patients and family members who want to learn more
