Abstract

In any society a small proportion of people with mental disorder present with behaviour that transgresses norms and violates the rights of others. Yet these people are often vulnerable themselves to violence, abuse or exploitation by others, or may be at risk of neglect or self-harm. There has been a growing realisation that both protection of the public and the personal recovery of these patients must be championed by progressive, specialist clinicians. This book brings together a wealth of wide-ranging views and evidence from diverse perspectives, including academic expertise and viewpoints from clinicians and patients, on how to manage risk in secure care. It covers the full spectrum of people with mental disorder who require secure care across boundaries of age, diagnosis and gender. Written by experienced clinicians and mental health professionals, the book is invaluable to multidisciplinary mental health teams and criminal justice services. General and forensic psychiatrists, service managers and hospital and community psychiatric nurses will find this thorough handbook an essential resource in their daily work.

Abstract

Long description: „Mit Sicherheit behandeln“ ist das Motto, das über der psychiatrisch-psychotherapeutischen Arbeit in der Forensischen Psychiatrie ebenso stehen könnte wie über den anderen Institutionen, die sich mit der Behandlung von Straftätern befassen. Sicherheit meint hier in erster Linie, die Legalprognose der zu Behandelnden nachhaltig zu verbessern. Nach den schweren Vorkommnissen in den späten 80er- und den 90er-Jahren wurde „Sicherheit“ mehr im Sinne formaler Rahmenbedingungen interpretiert. Streng genommen handelt es sich dabei nicht um Sicherheit, sondern um Sicherung. Sie ist eine Grundvoraussetzung für Straftätertherapie, das Ziel liegt aber in der Erreichung von Sicherheit in Freiheit. Der massive Anstieg der Verweildauern, die erhebliche Erschwerung der Entlassung von Tätern, die sexuell grenzverletzende Delikte begangen haben, und die zunehmende Einweisung von Menschen mit geringfügiger Kriminalität sind die Schattenseiten des umfassenden Sicherheitsanspruches. So wird die Frage nach der Wirksamkeit von Therapiemethoden immer wichtiger. Wie sicher sind die Diagnosen überhaupt? Muss jeder Straftäter „behandelt“ werden? Muss er sich das gefallen lassen?

Abstract

The number of individuals with severe mental illness in the criminal justice system is shockingly high. However, there is a wealth of research that shows that the traditional incarceration model is not effective with this population, and that many of these individuals can be helped in the community at less cost without increased risk to public safety by addressing their risk-relevant needs and improving their opportunities for recovery. As a result, during the last decade there has been an increasing interest in community-based alternatives to incarceration for individuals with severe mental i
