| At its heart, a psychiatrists work is about communicating. Failures in communication have led to well-publicised failures in care. The new technologies of communication can hopefully lead to better care. To realise these hopes, however, psychiatrists need a computer book aimed at intelligent professionals, not dummies. This is that book.It differs in being produced by mental health professionals for mental health professionals. While the book starts with basic computer skills it goes on to focus on specific areas of interest to psychiatrists, in order that the knowledge gained can confidently be used to support psychiatric practice. The reader is shown how to use a computer for data analysis, audit, report-writing, email and presentations. Issues of confidentiality and security are covered from both a legal and a technical point of view, while forthcoming developments in NHS information technology are fully explained.
