Description

Addiction psychiatrist Dr. Wiplove (Wip) Lamba and addictions case manager and former addict Jean-Paul (JP) Michael discuss the basic outpatient psychiatric assessment. Wiplove covers the key headings including identifying data, reason for referral, chief complaint, history of presenting illness, past psychiatric history, review of symptoms and personal history. JP has questions about how the assessment would change in different contexts and also asks “what is an addiction psychiatrist”. For interviews, Wiplove discusses how the content and process are both important. It’s not just what you ask but how you ask it.
