Should the title here be capitalized?

[edit]

Seems maybe not. Emesee (talk) 19:23, 12 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"telemental" in this context is not definable, should be split to "tele mental."

[edit]

Not only should it not be capitalized, but I submit that the word(?) telemental in this context has no definition nor can it be defined. Using the prefix tele- with the root mental the word might be synonymous with telepathy. The term should be "tele mental health." — Preceding unsigned comment added by Plyingfig (talkcontribs) 04:32, 12 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What is the etymology of this word? "Telemedicine" is "medicine at a distance" and makes sense. So does "telepsychiatry". But this sounds like "health of your telementals" which is nonsense. MidAtlanticRidgeback (talk) 20:57, 22 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

tele mental is a kind of care or service not a kind of health

[edit]

Should be corrected to tele mental health care or service. Tele mental is a kind of care or service, not a kind of health.
