Complex presentations at step 2 assessment masterclassInfo Location Contact Event Information
DescriptionThe PWP training gives a solid basis for providing a structured, thorough step 2 assessment. This masterclass is designed to support qualified PWP’s to expand on these skills to a more advanced level, to provide optimal care for all patients, but particularly those whose presentations may not be straightforward. A range of engaging teaching methods are used throughout the day to provide an optimal engaging experience and to cater for different learning styles including lectures, small and large group discussions, individual reflection and skills practice. The content of the masterclass will cover the context and evidence-base surrounding the topic and defining complexity and understanding its development. A focus will be on recognising complex presentations and severe mental health disorders, how to effectively differentiate between them and how these can present in the context of a step 2 assessment. It will explore effective information gathering, information giving and resourcing when there is a complex or significant mental health/risk history, in a context of delivering trauma-informed care. Many PWP’s will need to make referrals to other services, like secondary care, so there will be exploration through reflecting on this experience and preparation for making effective referrals. It will also focus on some of the interpersonal difficulties PWP’s can encounter and struggle within the unique context of step 2 assessments, such as dealing with interpersonal difficulties within an assessment, knowing how to effectively give information if you aren’t sure the service can meet their needs, managing expectations and having difficult conversations.
