First published in 1999, this innovative book explores in detail the essential components of working with families whose children are on the Child Protection Register. It provides a comprehensive guide to professionals, highlighting and addressing the gaps and ambiguities in central government guidance. The chapters, written by academics and leading professionals in the field, offer multi-disciplinary perspectives on models of assessment, core group practice, child protection plans and working in partnership with children and families. Practical guidance is offered to those who participate in post-registration practice and to those who participate in post-registration practice and to those who supervise or train professionals working in this area. This volume is of particular relevance to practitioners, students, managers and trainers in social work, health, education, probation and voluntary settings. It provides a unique collection of case examples, checklists and exercises enabling the reader to develop their own practice or use the material as a framework for promoting inter-agency practice within the supervision nor training context.

In thirty-three chapters it covers a wide range of topics, from the history of the profession to current approaches to specific client groups, organised around three linked themes: professional context practice issues education and research. Each chapter includes a summary of key points and suggestions for further reading, and also includes useful appendices listing key professional and voluntary organisations, journals, Internet and mailing lists.

The aim of the American Psychiatric Association Practice Guideline series is to improve patient care. Guidelines provide a comprehensive synthesis of all available information relevant to the clinical topic. Practice guidelines can be vehicles for educating psychiatrists, other medical and mental health professionals, and the general public about appropriate and inappropriate treatments. The series also will identify those areas in which critical information is lacking and in which research could be expected to improve clinical decisions. The Practice Guidelines are also designed to help those charged with overseeing the utilization and reimbursement of psychiatric services to develop more scientifically based and clinically sensitive criteria.

Mentally disordered offenders (MDOs) have dominatd the recent political agenda for mental health care emphasised by cases such as those of Christopher Clunis and Michael Stone. Yet successive governments have constrained the development of all health and social services by the requirement that they must be demonstrated as capable of benefiting those to whom they are applied. This book analyses the development of government policy for services for MDOs since the important Butler report in 1975 and provides a theoretical framework for adjudging research which purports to demonstrate a need and outcome. Finally, it emphasises the subjective and value-laden nature of all needs assessments and their interpretation and poses the crucial questions of whose need it is that we address through MDO services, those of the patient or of society. This book will be valuable to clinicians and researchers working in mental health services, policy-makers, service commissioners and managers. Features: An analysis of the history of the MDO policy in relation to needs assessment pre and post the important Reed Report. A methodological framework for needs assessment of MDOs. Critical appraisal of alternative definitions of needs and of related concepts. Critical analysis of the application of needs assessment methods. A review of research relevant to needs assessment for MDOs. Needs in relation to outcome. An analysis of recent policy development related to MDO services.

Managing Mental Health in the Community is a guide to best practice in the management of community care for people with mental health problems. A major theme is how to balance the 'triangle of care' that represents the needs and concerns of the user, carer (professional or family) and community. Rather than focusing on the mechanics of the task, this book aims to encourage reflective practice amongst staff, managers and policy-makers. The experienced practitioners who contribute not only challenge some of the assumptions prevalent in the field, but also present some tried and tested interventions used to enable users, staff and managers to function more effectively in community settings. They consider: * how community care has developed * the fundamental concepts of community care * how management is affected by practice * how care systems are designed. Managing Mental Health in the Community should be essential reading for Mental Health Practitioners, Managers, Social Workers, Policy-Makers, Organizational Consultants and all those professionals who are committed to improving the quality of mental health services provided in the community.
