Age Structures

Computerisation of case records has been slow to take place in child psychiatry, partly because of the amount of detailed and sometimes complex information required. A program for storing case records has been developed and it has proved of great value in epidemiological work, for example, regarding patient age structures and family compositions.

The Way

The scientific basis for practice in child psychiatry has developed apace. And has thrown up several quandries for an accepted paradigm for good practice anchored to the diagnostic schema developed in adult psychiatry. This paper hopes to stimulate discussion about where alternative paradigms might lead us on a path to precision medicine as applied to child psychiatry.

Generic Quality

In this paper the ethical concept of competence is explored in the context of a very challenging child psychiatry case. Both mental disorder and immaturity may impair a child's competence. However, It is emphasised that competence Is not a generic quality but one that should be applied to specific decisions, even when working with children.

And Training

In Thailand, we have only two programmes for residency training in psychiatry: one is general or adult psychiatry, which takes 3 years to complete; the other is child and adolescent psychiatry, which takes 4 years. There are nine institutes that offer residency training but only three medical schools have the capacity to offer training in both general and child psychiatry (Table 1).

Formed Part

There has been a child psychiatry research group within the Institute of Psychiatry since 1952. At first it constituted a section of the Department of Psychiatry and for a while it formed part of the MRC Social Psychiatry Research Unit. However, in 1973 London University established a Chair of Child Psychiatry and since that time there has been a separate Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry. The research in this field undertaken up to 1967 has been described previously (Rutter, 1968a) and the present report brings the account up to date with a summary of work carried out during the last eight years.

Part Time

The rise in the proportion of female medical graduates has led to an examination of the alternatives to full-time continuous postgraduate training. Part-time training has become more common, particularly in psychiatry and non-acute specialties. The means of establishing this type of training have been described in detail (Royal College of Psychiatrists, 1987) and the training requirements are discussed in the JCHPT Handbook. However, when part-time training is written about it is presented as a daunting process, fraught with concerns about a less than optimum training and practical difficulties. The survey by Ann Gath (1988) of supernumerary senior registrars in child and adolescent psychiatry detailed problems such as prejudice, a sense of exploitation, and lack of support and advice. These issues are clearly of great importance to those considering this option but there is also a more positive and optimistic view of part-time training which seems of particular relevance to child psychiatry. At the time of writing I am nearing the end of my higher training on the PM 79(3) scheme and am in a position to describe some of these more positive aspects.

Senior Registrar

The practice of child psychiatry depends upon clinical skills; the first requirement, then, of a training programme is that at the end of a given period the trainee should be really expert and rightly confident in his practical skills as a diagnostician and therapist. A total of four years, combining registrar and senior registrar experience, might be an appropriate period and would allow a full training, whereas at present some new consultants have spent only two and a half years in the specialty as senior registrars.

Child Psychiatrists

Careers in psychiatry which commence straight after house jobs are now commonplace and an informal tradition by which future child psychiatrists worked in paediatrics before training in psychiatry is nowadays less rehearsed. Recently, one of the St George's psychiatric registrar rotations arranged a six month post as a community child health doctor (community clinical medical officer) for a psychiatric registrar (JD) who had expressed an interest in child psychiatry as a career but lacked experience in paediatrics.
