Description

A Pocket Guide to Risk Assessment and Management in Mental Health by Chris Hart provides an accessible and practical guide for mental health professionals. This updated edition covers everything needed to undertake risk assessments, including risk formulation, working in forensic settings, specific mental health disorders, models of suicide and self-harm, and triage. The book features practice recommendations rooted in the latest theory and evidence base, as well as clinical tip boxes, tables, diagrams, and case examples. Authentic dialogue samples demonstrate ways to formulate questions and think about complex problems with the person being assessed. A companion website offers accompanying videos based on actual case studies, further illustrating key risk assessment and management skills. Suitable for mental health professionals and those in training, this concise guidebook is also a useful reference for healthcare practitioners who regularly interact with individuals experiencing mental health problems.
