Description

Clinical Practice in Context encourages students to think about and work with the contexts in which they meet children, young people and families. Students will learn about the development and structure of Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS), as well as relevant agencies and services in the UK. Other topics include multi-disciplinary and inter-agency working, safeguarding and child protection, conceptions of culture and class in relation to development and mental health, and legal frameworks for practice. The module is both theoretical and practical, with students learning skills related to culturally and ethically sensitive interventions taking into account the multiple contexts around the child. Teaching includes whole-group seminars, small-group discussion and exercises, skills modelling and practice, appraisal of relevant literature and case study analysis. Students will also be invited to reflect on the shared and unique contexts for their own practice.
