Overview
Clinical case formulation represents a means whereby specific areas of clinical need, or risk assessment, can be developed, understood and communicated effectively. It is identified as an essential practice model by many clinical disciplines.
In this session, you will be invited to consider the role of formulation in your clinical practice while exploring this understanding from a variety of different theoretical perspectives.
We will draw upon your own experiences to develop a multidisciplinary understanding of formulation.
Who should attend?
This masterclass is aimed at clinical practitioners with experience of working within forensic institutions.
