Let's be more than 'interested'. Contribute to the conversation, debate, knowledge base. Engage with one another. What should our top words be in Headroom other than 'interesting'?
@ayodya5000818 Remember to use recovery-focussed language. Use "a person with a diagnosis of schizophrenia" not "schizophrenic". Refer to labelling theory and lectures from the first day and consumer day.
@Maddie5000818@elise5000818@rati5000818 I'm glad you are enjoying working in a true interdisciplinary team. It's one of the great things of working in psychiatry. It asks every member of the team to do their best work, and keep learning.
@Melodee5000818 Fantastic to hear that you're in a workplace that talks about vicarious trauma (VT). We spend a morning on VT in your last semester. You'll have a head start.
@tina5000818@Suze_5000818 Can you look up the side effects of paliperidone that you need to monitor for after IM and let us know if they are different from other depots? Thanks.
Hi everyone, interesting to read about your learnings. Now I want you all to re-read the Headroom policy (subject guide & LMS) about what cannot be posted. I will assume that all student posts from here on are completely compliant with privacy requirements.
@tina5000818 Exam results will be available at the end of next week, podcasts the following fortnight. You are encouraged to start thinking about your PEP essay at the outset of placement.
@Jess_5000818 Prior to meeting the criteria for antisocial personality disorder individuals may meet the criteria for oppositional defiant or conduct disorders. Also don't have to have a diagnosis to start mental health interventions.
Thank you to all our Team Leaders, NUM, ANUM, CMs and Legal elite. To each of you who talked to Greg, and to all for struggling to understand him and make sense of his complex presentation, I am very grateful. You made the afternoon - remember everything from today is important.
@nilmini_5000818 @mikhala5000818 For me the best book on grief is the last essays of Oliver Sacks "On Gratitude" - it only takes an hour to read, but may change your own approach to life ...and death.
