Consult to the system WITH 8 NEEDS DO WE NEED 8 WORKERS?
Impact Offender Personality Disorder Project Summer 2009
Sensitive to perceived rejection Poor impulse control Rapid mood changes Stormy relationships Reckless Prison recalls • Historically, large shortfall in local services aimed at offenders with personality disorder living in the community. • Probation, as a result, left in relative isolation to manage this complex and challenging client group. • Little mental health training RECALL?

“itgives you more confidence, it relieves stress, and I think it makes you less likely to go off sick, because you are actually dealing with the stuff here and you feel capable whereas when you’re floundering in the dark it’s really scary … he is able to see things that I can’t see and tell me how to work specifically with that from a different perspective”. “When I was asked this before and I didn’t really understand it. I was like “well I can’t deal with those offenders cause they annoy me, they wind me up, they make me angry and I want to say something back to them.” Whereas now my experience is different cause I don’t take it personally. I can take a step back which stops me from getting so stressed out, it’s quite a big change for me”. Training needs analysisPPU and the two APs 45 min semi-structured interviews (1-year follow-up) “they are able to see things that I can’t see and tell me how to work specifically with that from a different perspective”
Impact - some lessons • Target intervention at staff – economical and sustainability • Provide a helping intervention • It’s better to identify and intervene early rather than crisis manage • ‘Treatment’ for PD is not the only option – think creatively to meet offender needs using community resources • Aim for organisational culture and system change
