Inpatient mental health care is an essential part of community-based mental health care in the UK. Patients admitted to acute mental health wards are often experiencing high levels of distress and acute mental illness and need to be assessed, managed, and treated by a wide team of mental health care professionals.

Written and edited by a multidisciplinary team, this innovative resource discusses the real-life experiences and challenges of a wide range of professionals working on acute mental health wards. Organized into 8 sections this resource covers nursing, team leadership, multidisciplinary work, psychology, and medical aspects. Individual chapters address key topics such as the management of children and adolescents, and contain information on up-to-date research and best practice. Focusing on the dignity and autonomy of patients, this unique resource offers a model for clinical and organizational practice both at a national and international level.

Empathy in Clinical Psychiatry and Mental Health Care focuses on empathy in clinical psychiatry and mental health care, bringing together the challenging reality of day-to-day clinical mental health work with conceptual and neuroscientific work on empathy. Such an interface is crucial because empathy is both ethically and epistemically central to mental health care. Mental health professionals' effort of trying to understand the distressing experiences of patients will help instil a sense of dignity and respect for their suffering. Empathy is also epistemically central to psychiatry because the knowledge gained through the empathy effort helps to inform the collaborative care plan to be developed with the patient.The book's first section sets the conceptual, epistemological and social neuroscience scene, including and acknowledging empathy's potential risks and problems. Its second section addresses empathy's role in medicine, descriptive psychopathology, psychological interventions, as well as the neurobiological basis of its disorders. The third section examines empathy in clinical situations such as psychosis, suicidal behaviour, personality disorders, alcohol or substance use disorders, forensic psychiatry, and the care of autistic people. Its final section describes the role of empathy in the work of mental health nurses, occupational therapists, clinical psychiatrists, and mental health law lawyers, with a final chapter covering empathy in mental health care interventions provided by conversational artificial intelligence. The book closes with a call to place clinical empathy at the centre of mental health care provision and research to increase effectiveness, outcomes and patient experience.
