Are we meeting the psychological needs of black African HIV-positive individuals in London? Controlled study of referrals to a psychological medicine unit
![](/sites/default/files/styles/publications_wide_945/public/publication-empty_9_828.png?itok=S2Vr8Cn3)
This study shows that HIV-infected black Africans in London are less likely to be referred to mental health services. This because of possible failure of staff to recognise psychological morbidity in black Africans or reluctance and fear on the part of patients to be referred to services that may be perceived as threatening.
