From the supplier: The use of restraint and seclusion can be markedly reduced in children's psychiatric hospitals without increasing medication use. Staff at the Virginia Treatment Center for Children, a public child psychiatric hospital, believed restraint and seclusion for aggressive patients to be both necessary and effective. The research literature says otherwise. A task force implemented change through education, improving intrastaff communication, persuasion, policy revision, and engaging patients' families in care. Now restraint is almost never used and the seclusion rate is halved while medication use is also down.

From the supplier: Some of the journalists assigned to the press pool that covered the planned invasion of Haiti in Sep 1994 were ill-prepared for the assignment. Many veteran war reporters felt that such reporters could endanger themselves and write inaccurate stories. The Pentagon was extremely helpful in providing information during this period in keeping with earlier agreements between the press and the Pentagon. While some journalists believe that war reporters can benefit from training, others do not see any problems with general assignment reporters being assigned to the pool.

This book presents a detailed description of a new group method called Planned Group Counseling (PGC). This method was created to cope with the very reluctant behaviors found in chemically dependent and psychiatric patients: lateness, irregular attendance, premature termination, and non-compliance with therapeutic directives. The book provides the readers with a step-by-step guide for implementing PGC, including plans and psychological exercises that are designed to further develop intra-and interpersonal skills. Detailed descriptions of interventions are also included to help the group leader with a variety of difficult behaviors.
