TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - OPRISK: A structured checklist assessing security needs for mentally disordered offenders referred to high security psychiatric hospital JO - Criminal behaviour and mental health A1 - Brown, Christine S. H. A1 - Lloyd, Keith SP - 190 EP - 202 VL - 18 IS - 3 N2 - Background More mentally disordered offenders (MDOs) are referred to secure psychiatric care settings than are accepted for admission. Psychiatrists working in different care settings may disagree on the appropriate level of security for MDOs, resulting in treatment delay. A pre-admission structured assessment of security needs for MDOs may facilitate agreement and access to care.
