The recommendations from the Mental Health Act review, updates on the progress of the liberty protection safeguards, interface with the Children Act and the thorny issue of PR and NR will be explored, as well as focus on updates in relation to the MCA/DoLS interface and recent case law will be discussed. | AMHP Forum and Classroom Events |
AMHP: Children, Mental Health & Mental Capacity | Course Outline: While deprivation of liberty safeguards have been associated largely with adults several recent court rulings have highlighted that deprivation can occur at any age and for those working within children and young people’s disabilities teams this is an issue in acute focus. Whether a child meets what is known as ‘the acid test’ for a deprivation is a complex issue, taking into account the child or young person’s competence or capacity, the scope of parental responsibility and the level of supervision and control that is in place. This programme will examine the use, and impact of, the MCA and DoLS with Children with disabilities and aims to support children and young people’s practitioners think about how and when the MCA should be used and when a court authorisation for a deprivation or best interest determination might be required. | AMHP Forum and Classroom Events |

AMHP: Autism, Asperger Syndrome and the Mental Health Act | Course Outline: Autism and Asperger’s syndrome may both be defined as a ‘mental disorder’ within the terms of the Mental Health Act, but the way these spectrum disorders present, and the impact they can have on how an individual communicates can be misinterpreted or exacerbated by the actions of others, and this needs to be a key consideration for any AMHP undertaking a Mental Health Act Assessment with a person affected by these conditions. This AMHP programme looks at the impact Autistic spectrum disorders have on the individual and their social interactions, and the impact this can have on both the person’s presentation and the complexity of the assessment task. | AMHP Forum and Classroom Events |

AMHP: Safeguarding and the AMHP role | Course Outline: The AMHP role has a key function under the heading of safeguarding, whether it is safeguarding a citizen’s rights under the Mental Health or Human Rights Acts, or being at the front line and alerting / intervening where adults or children are at risk of harm. Safeguarding is about more than protection, it has at its heart prevention and enablement, and the AMHP has a duty to both safeguard under the Act and also to engage in safeguarding more generally when undertaking the role. This programme is designed as an AMHP refresher and will provide the opportunity to refresh and reflect on the interface between the AMHP and safeguarding in its various forms and contexts.
