During this course, we will look at whether a person who has committed a crime (the offender), is a patient or a criminal. And does the offender need punishment or treatment? The content of this field varies a lot from country to country, and depends on the legislation, the healthcare system, cultural aspects and many more aspects. In this course we like to discover the similarities and differences of forensic mental health in different countries. Students will work on cases, they will attend lectures and take part in workshops with (international) teachers and researchers. Because of the double aspect of criminal/offender and patient, we can find out how legislation, punishment and treatment are connected. In prison we often find persons with these both aspects. We try to include a clinical visit to a (forensic) mental health institution or a prison where persons are incarcerated.
During this course we have lectures and workshops with topics like: neurocriminology, psychopathology, risk-taxation, psychopathy, sexual behaviour, addiction, suicideprevention, social context of criminality, youth criminality, people with development disorders, rehabilitation and so on.
The course is open to all kinds of health care professionals. Nurses, social work, psychologist and medical students and professionals are welcome to join.
In this course we place forensic mental health in an international context. National, Social, Biological, Cultural and Mental health aspects are different in each setting. By using international literature and lectures, participants learn about the similarities and differences in several contexts.
