Description
Majid Alabdulla and co-authors survey health workers in Qatar on a new mental health law in 2026. The law sets rules for care of people with mental illness and guards their rights. It is now being put into practice. The team asked staff at the state medical body about their knowledge and views. The survey ran in late 2021.
More than one thousand staff took part. Most held a positive view of the law. They felt it would help rights, access, and timely care. Only about a third had had any training on the law. Staff praised the match with world human rights norms. They worried about lack of training and lack of focus on staff health. The authors see a good base for rollout.
