An overwhelming number of persons suffer from mental health problems across their life span. In this important book, the authors describe the critical issues in the psychiatric care of individuals with autism. Written by a father (who is an experienced psychologist), and his daughter (who has suffered from psychiatric disorders), it gives a detailed account of the difficulties faced by persons with autism and related disorders, especially as they transition into adulthood, and sheds light on the challenges faced both by patients and staff. I enjoyed reading the book and recommend it both to parents and caregivers of persons with autism and other developmental disabilities.

Patients in psychiatric care can behave in ways that can be alarming for staff, and difficult to respond to. The authors of this practical and imaginative book explain why patients may behave in these ways, and offer a toolkit of ways to respond effectively and kindly. With many everyday examples of how to keep the space positive and safe, and patients calm, this book could transform your working life.

The principles of practice in psychiatric care are described with the intent to manage behavioural challenges and create a healthy workspace and treatment area. The author discusses methods and approaches of managing negative behaviour of both patients and staff, to allow for the psychiatric treatment to function most effectively.

Introduction. Part 1. 1. Always identify who it is that has a problem. 2. People behave well if they can. 3. People do what makes sense. 4. The one that takes responsibility can make a difference. 5. Those who are used to failing learn nothing from failing one more time. 6. You need self-control to be able to cooperate. 7. We all do what we can to maintain self-control. 8. Affect is contagious. 9. Conflicts consist of solutions and Failures require an action plan. 10. We make demands that patients wouldn't make on themselves - but in a way that works. 11. You become a leader when someone follows you. Part 2. 12. We work in a garage. 13. Example situations and Action plans. 14. Study materials. Notes and references.
