    medical professionals, psychologists, and researchers

    I know we sometimes talk about getting the word out to GP surgeries etc, but what is the equivalent for ambulance crews, nurses, etc. How, for instance, would you get Dr Muirhead's article in front of them?

    Characteristics of patients with motor functional neurological disorder in a large UK mental health service (2019) O'Connell, Wessely et al
