nothing special snack This is an expensive book with a CD comprised of a variety of forms that a psychiatrist might use in some iterationthe problems are that although you can print out the forms from the CD, you can't edit or personalize them and the forms themselves are sometimes not up to date or often just different from my style of practice. All in all, not too functional. A.P.. I am hoping that a newer edition is coming out Bonnie S. Dank I am hoping that a newer edition is coming out. However, with all the EMR companies putting out programs, this would only be helpful to small practices that cannot afford the other products out there.
* Information about Medications for Patients and Families -- Extensively revised to consolidate the discussion of medications, or a drug class, from a long and short version (from previous editions) to a single version, these medication handouts have been expanded to include information on the second-generation antipsychotics, agents for treatment of ADHD, cognitive enhancers, recently introduced antidepressants, and the new mood stabilizers. Most significantly, long versions of rating scales have been replaced by abbreviated versions (e.g., the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale was replaced with the 4-Item Positive Symptom Rating Scale and Brief Negative Symptom Assessment, and the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale was condensed to a single page), and new rating scales have been added, including the Brief Bipolar Disorder Symptom Scale and the Hamilton Depression Rating Scale. Medical students, psychiatric residents, and busy clinicians treating patients individually or in groups will appreciate the unsurpassed convenience of this indispensable volume, with its complete set of forms and protocols and comprehensive list of illness and medication handouts for patients and families. * Information about Psychiatric Illnesses for Patients and Families
