2.4 Cultural Practices and Specific Health Issues
Some health issues, like mental illness, epilepsy, and mental retardation are not
always well-accepted. Sometimes the mentally-ill household member is hidden away
from the community because the family is ashamed. The mentally-ill household member
could also be locked away because their behaviour towards themselves or the
community may be unacceptable.
This is not the correct way to handle the situation. The household member should be
referred to the clinic where they will be examined and given treatment and medicines to
treat the illness. If the doctors feel the household member would be better off in a
hospital, then they will refer them to one.
