This is about mental health care in Norway, but their story about the undocumented treatment "Basal exposure therapy" and how it's been hyped...
That would be the estimates I am used to hearing for Norway (I've also seen 15 000 mentioned), so it sounds small when used for the UK. I don't...
I wish, but it was the words used when Kennair left the program. The attitude is alarming.
She is research director of the department of systematic reviews at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health :(
