Background
Improving attitudes of personnel towards self-injurious patients leads to better
working alliance and contributes to better patient outcomes. Previous research
into the improvement of these attitudes has recorded the need for specific
training in evidence-based assessment and treatment of self-injurious patients.
Aim
The current study describes the attitudes towards self-injurious patients among
psychiatric personnel. The study also evaluates the effect of a structured clinical
training program on psychiatric personnel’s attitudes towards patients who selfinjure.
It further examines whether age, education, frequency of self-injurious
patients contact, and work experience of the personnel are associated with the
existing attitudes.
Methods
Psychiatric personnel (N = 50) attended a four-day training program, presenting
evidence-based knowledge regarding self-injury assessment and treatment,
using group exercises and reflective learning principles. The personnel completed
the Understanding Suicidal Patients Questionnaire (USP) anonymously
PreTraining, on 17 January 2014, and PostTraining, on 20 June 2014. The mean
differences as well as single USP items before and after the training were tested
by unpaired t-test. Two-way ANOVA was used to test impact of background
variables on the USP scores.
Results
The training program had statistically significant impact (P < 0 01) on the following
individual items of the USP scale: Patients who have tried to commit
suicide are usually treated well in my work unit (d = 1 02); A person who has
made several suicide attempt is at greater risk of committing suicide (d = 0 64);
Because the patients who have tried to commit suicide have emotional problems,
they need the best possible treatment (d = 0 57). The results also suggested
that the frequency of patient contact had impact on attitudes towards
self-injurious patients.
