Mental health risk assessment in service users, including those experiencing or perpetrating domestic abuse

This is for Home Office-funded research into how well mental health risk assessments perform when they are carried out in the context of domestic abuse, include perpetration of domestic abuse. The project will identify a sample of CRIS records which contain clinical mentions of domestic abuse or domestic abuse perpetration(using text mining and manual validation), extract risk assessment forms on these records, and then look at the comparative rate of adverse outcomes according to different levels of assessed risk.
