Implementing the NICE depression guideline

In summer 2010, Guidelines ran a series of workshops on implementing the updated NICE depression guideline at various locations around the country. The workshop series and subsequent webcasts were commissioned and sponsored by Lundbeck Ltd.

These three brief webcasts, filmed at the London workshop, will provide background on the updated NICE depression guideline and an insight into its implementation. The areas covered are:
