This will be one of the only online courses in the UK which has reducing restrictive practice as the focus. We will be providing a summary of the burgeoning evidence about restrictive practice in mental health; the background, political landscape, clinical factors, guidelines and the available evidence about ways to reduce restrictive practice in psychiatry.
This two-afternoon virtual course is designed for staff working in a mental health setting who work with patients who are acutely unwell mentally. It will introduce the management of acute disturbance and discuss the key areas for treating, prescribing, and monitoring of medicines used for acute disturbance.
Friday 10th & 17th May from 1pm to 5pm.
