Abstrakt		Although considerable changes have taken place in Slovenia since it became independent in 1991, the psychiatric services face further challenges for their future. Among these, the two main priorities are a further development of the already proposed Patients Advocacy Act and Protection of Rights of Mental Patients Law, and a development of presently almost non-existent community psychiatric services. The developing services should become needs-oriented and, accordingly, regionally diverse as Slovenia is a country with extremely high and variable suicide rate and rates of alcohol misuse and alcohol-related disorders, with both problems interacting significantly throughout the country.
Izvleček		Čeprav je v času po osamosvojitvi Slovenije leta 1991 prišlo do velikih sprememb, se psihiatrične službe še naprej soočajo z izzivi za bodočnost. Med njimi sta dve glavni prioriteti nadaljnji razvoj že predlaganega Zakona o zagovorništvu pacientov ter Zakona o varstvu pravic duševnih bolnikov in razvoj sedaj skoraj neobstoječih skupnostih psihiatričnih služb. Razvijajoče se službe bi morale postati usmerjene v potrebe in potemtakem regionalno različne, ker je Slovenija dežela z izjemno visoko in variabilno stopnjo samomorilnosti in škodljive uporabe alkohola ter z alkoholom povezanih motenj, saj sta ta dva problema navzoča po vsej deželi in pomembno vplivata drug na drugega.
