About the course

This one-day simulation-based training course is designed to enhance the clinical and non-technical skills of trainee doctors in managing common mental health presentations. Through immersive scenarios using trained actors and facilitated debriefs, participants will practise taking psychiatric histories, conducting mental state examinations, and developing holistic patient formulations. The course also provides a strong focus on risk assessment, communication, and applying key mental health legislation in realistic clinical situations.

Learning objectives

After completing this course, participants will be able to:

• Refresh and further develop confidence and skills in taking a psychiatric history, performing a mental state examination, and generating holistic patient formulations for common mental disorders.
• Increase confidence in risk assessments (risk to self, others, and from others) and understand the best pathways for managing risks in hospital, community, and home settings.
• Develop knowledge and skills in the management of common mental disorders.
• Understand and apply the Mental Capacity Act and Mental Health Act.
• Explore consultation dynamics and factors influencing patient interactions.
• Enhance non-technical skills, including teamwork and communication with colleagues.
