RATIONALES FOR SaFF TARGETS2006/2007
Why bother?
Trusts are beginning to be audited in terms of compliance with NICE guidelines and will face financial penalties for failing to comply
SaFF targets 14 & 15
Who will carry out all these “psychological”
interventions?

Cognitive model
• Principles– people’s view of their
world is determined by their thinking (cognition)
– cognition influences emotions, behaviour and attitudes
– impaired/dysfunctional cognition creates mental pathology
– significant change in mental disorder needs to involve significant change in cognition
• Characteristics– treatment involves
“collaborative empiricism”– client active participant in
assessment e.g. diaries– gives client sense of
mastery over feelings thought to be beyond voluntary control
– interpretation of thoughts is main determinant of action
Behavioural model
Behavioural model
• Principles– symptoms and behaviour
constitute main feature of mental illness
– origin and persistence of symptoms of behaviour can be understood through science of learning theory
– application of learning theory removes maladaptive symptoms and in so doing cures the disorder
• Characteristics– person’s behaviour part
of own responsibility
– treatment aims to extinguish maladaptive conditioned response
– behaviour programmes based on functional analysis
– non-hierarchical
– treatment contracts must be voluntary
Medical model
Contrast with medical model …
• Principles– mental pathology also
accompanied by physical pathology
– mental illness can be classified as different disorders which each have common features
– mental illness is biologically disadvantageous and handicapping
– causes of physical and mental pathology in psychiatric illness all explicable in terms of physical illness
• Characteristics– patient passive recipient of
treatment
– if patient fails to respond - more powerful treatment or question diagnosis
– doctor is expert, chief decision maker and head of the team
– “logical”
– “scientific”

doi:10.1046/j.1365-2648.1998.00516.xVolume 27 Issue 2 The clinical skills of community psychiatric nurses working with patients who have severe and enduring mental health problems: an
empirical analysis Sheila M. Devane DClin Psychol, Gillian Haddock PhD, Stuart Lancashire MSc, Ian Baguley RMN, Tony Butterworth
PhD, Nicholas Tarrier PhD, Abigail James BSc & Phillip Molyneux MSc AbstractThis study describes the use of reliable scales to rate the clinical skills of mental health nurses when working with individuals and families with severe mental health problems. The Cognitive Therapy Scale and the Schizophrenia Family Work Scale were adapted for the study and were shown to have good inter-rater reliability when assessing audio-taped interviews carried out by mental health nurses during their usual course of work with patients with severe mental health problems and their families. The sample of mental health nurses studied were shown to have significantly better general therapy skills than specific cognitive therapy technical skills. The implications for training are discussed.
• Significant difference between general and technical skills
• Good on understanding, empathy and professional manner
• Moderate on questioning
• Poor on specific cognitive behavioural skills
– pacing and use of time– collaboration– guided discovery– agenda setting
• Very poor on– feedback – conceptualising problem– setting goals– implementing goals– negotiating homework
Do nurses have the skills?

How are skills acquired?
• Nature of “skill”
• How skills are learnt
• Micro-skills
• Combining micro-skills
• Stages of skills acquisition

Our approach
• 4 stages1. Priming
2. Building confidence/allaying anxiety
3. Enhancing skills
4. Real-life practice
• Feedback
• Questioning
