Parity of esteem refers to valuing mental health on the same level as physical health.
• This means that we have equal access to support, treatments and services if we have mental ill health as we would if we were physical unwell.
• equal access to the most effective and safest care and treatment • equal efforts to improve the quality of care • the allocation of time, effort and resources on a basis commensurate with
need • equal status within healthcare education and practice • equally high aspirations for service users; and • equal status in the measurement of health outcomes
