What is it about?
What should we be mindful of when making use of technology in mental healthcare, to really make the most out of it? These guidelines by the Project Group on eHealth of the European Federation of Psychologists' Associations (EFPA) aim to provide a starting point for clinicians, health services & governmental bodies, and software developers.

Why is it important?
Technology can add value to mental healthcare, but is infrequently and often improprely used.
Perspectives
Although these guidelines are high-level and somewhat abstract, we do hope that, they can help guide organisations, professional associations and even governmental bodies to develop their own tailored guidelines and regulations.
