| Popis: | Multiple factors related to the COVID‐19 pandemic such as social isolation, economic difficulties and anxiety/uncertainty are thought to likely lead to or exacerbate stress‐related disorders and suicidality in vulnerable people, and thus may lead to a further possible increase in the use of Section 136 detention. Here, Dr Sam and Dr Kelbrick evaluate the presence of clinical record‐keeping following Section 136 Mental Health Act assessments, whether this has changed from pre‐COVID‐19, and the uptake of digital technology in conducting these assessments. |
