Pre-admission Nursing Assessment in a Welsh Medium Secure Unit (1991-2000): Part 2--comparison of traditional Nursing Assessment with the HCR-20 risk Assessment tool.
International journal of nursing studies, 2003Co-Authors: Andrew Watt, Barry Topping-morris, Paul Rogers, Mike Doyle, Tom MasonAbstract:Pre-admission forensic Nursing Assessment is a tradition that has no research evidence base, little documentary support and is an expensive drain on Nursing resources from clinical environments. Such an expensive practice warrants some evaluation of the quality of these Nursing Assessments. This study assessed the quality of Nursing risk Assessments through comparison with the HCR-20, a well-established and widely validated violence risk Assessment instrument. There was a high degree of correspondence between nurse Assessments and the contents of the HCR-20. The results offer support for forensic nurses' abilities to develop effective measures and practices based upon Nursing knowledge and experience where no formal evidence base previously existed.

Pre-admission Nursing Assessment in a Welsh medium secure unit (1991-2000): Part 1 - an analysis of practice and cost
International journal of nursing studies, 2003Co-Authors: Andrew Watt, Barry Topping-morris, Tom Mason, Paul RogersAbstract:Pre-admission Nursing Assessment is a widely accepted practice in forensic mental health services, yet has never been described or evaluated. The costs and merits of this practice have not hitherto been the subject of systematic investigation. This article describes the practice of pre-admission Assessments and details a method for estimating the cost of forensic Nursing Assessments in terms of the investment of Nursing time. The method was then employed to evaluate the cost of Nursing Assessments to a Welsh medium secure unit over a 9-year period. The results showed that the demand for, and location, of pre-admission Nursing Assessment varied considerably over 9 years. Assessments were expensive in the demands that they placed on the resources of the Nursing department. Due to the high investment costs, evidence is required to support such practice.
