Predictors of seclusion in forensic psychiatric intensive care wards in a South London NHS trust

  • Applicant: Else Dierick
  • Project ID: 16-083

This research aims to investigate the predictors for seclusion in forensic psychiatric care wards in a South London NHS trust. These predictors can inform service personnel of which behaviour is risky and needs to be looked out for, as well as look into ways of providing additional support for those service users who display this behaviour in order to potentially employ an early intervention strategy or devise other ways of managing their behaviour within the ward.

The Clinical Record Interactive Search (CRIS) system is a computer system that allows researchers at the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) to carry out research using information from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust clinical records.
