Abstract

Goals: The participant will learn about the prevalence and circumstances of violent acts against registrars and about possible methods of response.

Summary: The literature on violence against psychiatry trainees will be reviewed with an emphasis on data from Australasia and the psychological impact of incidents. Models for both preventing and responding to incidents of violence by patients against trainees will be discussed, and case examples will illustrate the principles at stake. Workshop participants will be invited to discuss any relevant experiences within their own training programmes.
