Self-harm and Violence: Towards Best Practices in Managing Risk
in Mental Health Services fills an important gap in the
literature, presenting the voice of service users, summarizing the
latest research about the risk of harm to self or others, and
reviewing the strength of evidence for interventions used to
prevent or reduce risk and harm on inpatient psychiatric units.
This scholarly, yet highly accessible book will appeal to academics
who are interested in studying issues related to harm to self or
others, nursing staff who manage risk on a day-to-day basis, and
educators who will welcome the compilation of information in one
source.
