Over the years Consultation-Liaison (C-L) psychiatry has contributed significantly to the growth of the psychiatry and has brought psychiatry very close to the advances in the medicine. It has also led to changes in the medical education and in the providing comprehensive management to the physically ill. In India, although the General Hospital Psychiatric units were established in 1930s, C-L Psychiatry has never been the main focus of training and research. Hence there is an urgent need to improve C-L Psychiatry services and training to provide best and optimal care to the patients and provide best education to the trainees.
多年来，联络精神病学为精神病学的发展做出了重大贡献，并使精神病学非常接近医学的进步。它还导致了医学教育和对身体不适患者的综合管理的变化。在印度，尽管综合医院的精神科病房成立于 20 世纪 30 年代，但联络精神病学从未成为培训和研究的主要重点。因此，迫切需要改善联络精神病学服务和培训，为患者提供最佳和最佳的护理，并为学员提供最佳的教育。
