Essentials Of Psychiatric Assessment - 9781138552364

A psychiatric assessment is a structured clinical conversation, complemented by observation and mental state examination, and supplemented by a physical examination and the interview of family members when appropriate. After the initial interview, the clinician should be able to establish whether the individual has a mental health problem or not, the nature of the problem, and a plan for the most suitable treatment. Essentials of Psychiatric Assessmentprovides the resident or beginning psychiatrist with a complete road map to a thorough clinical evaluation.
