title: Community mental health care in Grenada.
abstract: In Grenada, community mental health (CMH) care as an essential element of comprehensive primary health care goes beyond the boundaries of the psychiatric hospital and interfaces with the communities it serves. The boundaries between these two services however remain flexible and there often exists an interdependent relationship, with each acknowledging and utilizing the specific services provided by the other. This collaboration has been greatly facilitated by the fact that one administrative body is in charge of the entire mental health system throughout Grenada.
