Conclusion
• In most countries, treatment, if sought, is from general practitioners
• In all countries, especially Ukraine, poorly trained to treat mental health and alcohol problems.
• Challenge for Ukraine, given the small number of mental health professionals, is to train general practitioners to recognize and adequately treat mental health and alcohol problems.
