Mental health liaison simulation

Psychiatry Liaison Nurses are on the frontline in assessment of complex mental health presentations in acute hospitals. They are key in assessing mental state, risk and formulating management plans but also in providing acute hospital staff with support and guidance in navigating patient care. This full day face-to-face simulation course will provide participants with the opportunity to be involved in a range of simulated scenarios and debriefs based on common but challenging liaison presentations. Participants will develop a broad understanding of how to assess and manage patients presenting with psychiatric conditions in medical settings.
