Title:TW Shift
Li appeared low having spoke with Dr G this afternoon. He was upset that he about being on 1:1
as he complains it makes him feel anxious. Li spoke on the phone to his mum for a short while
and said it was nice to speak to her. Despite wanting to leave and Li’s dislike of being on 1:1, he
has appeared quite bright in mood generally, smiling, laughing and chatting to staff and peers.

Title:Discussion with Sarah Cannell
After leaving three messages for his social worker, I phoned Senior AMHP within the Trust.
Sarah outlined that we have to weigh up the pro’s and con’s of him bieng an inpatient. Holding
him under the agreement of the local authority (as he is on a Full Care Order), stops being
acceptable, once he needs treatment for his mental disorder,(not to be sectioned, so he can have
a physical examination). Having ascertained that I had attempted to negotiate with him, Sarah
advised that I need to request a Mental Health Act assessment.

Title:Li adamant he wants to leave
Li seen- tense, closed body posture, mostly avoiding eye contact. Told me he has had enough of
being on one to one- that either this ends, or he wants to take his own discharge. He reported that
it is making him feel more stressed, ‘paranoid’ and distressed than he has ever felt before. I
explained that it is difficult for him, that he cannot self-harm when being observed, yet we have
not given him strategies to replace that. I discussed with him ideas such as flicking a rubber band
on his wrist, writing in red pen or holding ice cubes till they melt. Rebecca confirmed that she will
ensure that some are available. Li told me that he doesn’t feel he can wait till Thursday (to see
Oliver).
As there was no shift in his postion, I said I would try to speak to his social worker and get back to
him.

Psychological
Therapy
Title: Spoke to Li to ask how he was getting on. He said he was finding it diffcult being under oneto-one observations all the time. When I asked him if he could explain why, he said that it made
him feel paranoid and anxious. He said it was bringing back bad memories. I suggested that he
might benefit from meeting me on a regular basis to think about some of these feelings and the
memories attached to them. I explained that sometimes young people come in that we don’t know
much about and there are concerns about risks they pose to themselves and others, and that is
why they are put on 1-to-1. I explained that sessions with psychology would be a way of getting to
know him better and MIGHT allow us to review his obs. We agreed to meet on Thursdays at 5pm
(starting 10/05) and Tuesdays at 3pm (starting 15/05).
