This article is developing nicely but I'd like to reiterate the point about it being titled "psychiatric" assessment, beacuse it is (rightly) including assessment by psychologists, social workers, multidisciplinary etc, and specificlaly mentions non-medical models. Perhaps it could be titled mental health assessment, with a section specifically on psychiatric models/assessments if necessary. Still restricts it to being a "health" phenomenon rather than, say "life difficulties" :) but bit broader... EverSince ( talk) 11:43, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
