Synopsis

Like the first edition, "Practical Psychiatric Practice: Forms and Protocols for Clinical Use, Second Edition", is a nuts-and-bolts book designed to aid psychiatrists in organizing their work. It provides rating scales, model letters, medication tracking forms, clinical pathology requests and sample invoices. In addition, handouts on disorders and medication are provided for patients and their families. The forms briefly describe the major psychiatric disorders and outline the therapies commonly used to treat them. In response to feedback on the first edition, packaged with this second edition are copies of the forms in easy to use, convenient electronic format on a CD-ROM. This allows for the forms to be adapted to better fit individual practices. These forms function as a guide to medical students, psychiatric residents and psychiatrists just beginning their practices. For experienced clinicians, "Practical Psychiatric Practice" aids in organizing an existing practice.
