摘要:This idiographic, qualitative research sought to investigate the perceptions of patients with ABI regarding the utility of a collaborative process when completing the HCR-20 risk assessment. Four male participants detained under the Mental Health Act (1983, amended 2007), in medium- and low-secure facilities completed semi-structured interviews to allow for rich, detailed accounts to be obtained. Anonymity and confidentiality of participant information was maintained throughout, including specific details of the hospital and violent behaviours they have portrayed. An inductive thematic analysis identified three themes at the semantic level forming the basis of the discussion. The themes identified were; ‘comprehension of the HCR-20 assessment and effective communication’, ‘benefits of assessment engagement and motivation to change’, and ‘externalisation of behaviour, responsibility and control’. The findings led to recommendations for professional consideration that are believed to improve clinical-practice, specifically regarding the way HCR-20 risk assessments are conducted within medium- and low-secure hospital settings.
