Woodcock, Ray
Woodcock, Ray
Abstract
Parts one and two of this series focused on the process and principles of violence risk assessments in forensic mental health practice. Building on these substantive issues, part three considers the difficult issue of sourcing information, putting the pieces of the risk jigsaw together and evaluating risk. It also considers confidentiality and disclosure, as they are important aspects of the clinical duty of care and are directly related to the risk assessment and the management process.
