Mental Health Assessment Skills

6 weeks · 0 milestones

Demonstrate competency in structured mental status examination (MSE) in a supervised clinical setting. Proof requires: (a) a documented MSE for at least 3 supervised patient contacts (anonymised), covering all MSE domains: appearance, behaviour, speech, mood, affect, thought content, thought process, perception, cognition, and insight/judgement; and (b) a clinical supervisor's competency sign-off confirming the assessments were conducted under supervision and the student demonstrated appropriate interview skills. The proof documents the STUDENT'S assessment skill development under supervision — not clinical conclusions about the patients assessed. Peer verification is NOT accepted — clinical supervisor attestation is required.
