Summary

Оглавление

Making accurate diagnoses and recording them are central to effective interventions by LICBT practitioners. They inform problem statements, goals and treatment plans developed collaboratively with patients, help determine which type of intervention might best be provided and determine the appropriate way to monitor progress throughout treatment. It is therefore important that an assessment is undertaken to ascertain which probable diagnosis best describes the presenting difficulty for all people presenting to LICBT services. To support LICBT practitioners we have suggested the use of a simple screening tool with questions which can be considered for every patient seen by an LICBT practitioner. To use it fully, LICBT practitioners will need adequate training in recognising the common mental disorder diagnoses seen regularly in their services, in monitoring symptoms of these disorders and in communicating outcomes from such monitoring sensitively and usefully to their patients. Enabling LICBT practitioners to effectively determine probable diagnoses is vital in ensuring the effective delivery of appropriate evidence-based interventions and the best possible outcomes for patients.
