1. A 21st Century Education for the Medico-Psycho-Legal
Practitioner: Principles, Research Methods, and Practice
Changing Attitudes among Trainees: Whose Job is It?

Brad Booth, University of Ottawa ([email protected])

With the exponential growth of individuals with mental illness coming in contact with the law,
psychiatric care for these individuals is at times difficult to find. Many psychiatrists do not have
experience with the legal system and therefore may avoid treating this group of patients. To
clarify the attitudes of psychiatric trainees, a survey of senior Canadian residents at the national
psychiatry review course was conducted. Among the 145 respondents, only 24% had been taught
on correctional psychiatry and only 29% had any experience. Nearly 56% had been taught on
sexual offenders but only 27% reported having had experience with this population. Nearly 1/3
reported they preferred not to deal with forensic issues and 43% preferred not to work with
people with sexual offences. The data did show that teaching and experience with this population
appears to be a powerful tool in changing attitudes. Being aware of these barriers may assist in
developing strategies to increase psychiatric service availability.

Forensic Nursing Education: International Collaborations and
Multidisciplinary Pedagogy

Arlene Kent-Wilkinson, University of Saskatchewan ([email protected])

By the end of the twentieth century, forensic nursing educational programs began to appear in
the curricula of colleges and universities. The forensic focus has been a popular career choice
and area of study for many of the health science disciplines. By the mid-1990s, some of the
earliest forensic nursing courses were established. Considering that the first web-based course
was not launched until 1995 in California (Bates & Poole, 2003), forensic nursing education
made its online appearance on the global scene relatively quickly. Forensic nursing educators,
supported by progressive administrators, used the technology to offer the first online forensic
course in January of 1997 at Mount Royal University in Calgary, Alberta, Canada (Kent-
Wilkinson et al., 2000). Today, courses exist at educational levels that range from certificate to
doctoral programs. This presentation will focus on the power of using advanced technology and
the value of international collaborations in the pedagogy of multidisciplinary forensic courses.
8
This session will also highlight findings of Dr. Kent-Wilkinson’s research that explored many
aspects of forensic nursing education: definitions of forensic nursing, how forensic nursing roles
are different from other disciplines, the unique knowledge of this specialty, and social factors
influencing course development.

Sexual Boundary Violations in the Forensic Mental Health Milieu

Cindy Peternelj-Taylor, University of Saskatchewan ([email protected])

The ability to create and maintain treatment boundaries with forensic clients has been described
as one of the most important competencies required by clinicians practicing in forensic mental
health settings. When mental health professionals fail to establish or maintain therapeutic
boundaries, they are at risk of “crossing the line” and becoming over involved with their clients.
In practice, over involvement frequently leads to sexual boundary violations. This presentation
gives voice to sexual boundary violations as discussed by nurses who participated in a
phenomenological study exploring nurse engagement with forensic clients. Illustrated as a “real
eye opener,” sexual boundary violations with forensic clients have grave clinical, ethical and
legal implications. While the responsibility for establishing and maintaining professional
boundaries rests with the mental health professional, some would argue that many forensic
clients are skilled at manipulation and exploiting situations for their personal gain, thus
contributing to a blurring of the lines of responsibility when sexual boundary violations do occur.
It is hoped that participants will move toward a more complex understanding of sexual boundary
violations that occur in forensic mental health, which may allow them to better enact their
relationships with forensic clients. Heightened awareness and understanding of the nature of
sexual boundary violations within forensic mental health settings will, regardless of one’s
professional discipline, contribute to effective risk management, thereby indicating the need for
further research. Strategies need to be developed within forensic mental practice that deal with
issues surrounding sexual boundary violations before, during, and after they arise.

Law and Psychiatry Seminar: Meeting the Challenge of Medico-Legal
st
Education in the 21 Century

Glen Luther, University of Saskatchewan ([email protected])

The relationship between lawyers and doctors, especially psychiatrists with whom they work
closely, has been described as tenuous and riddled with miscommunication. The Law Society of
Canada has introduced sweeping changes to enhance teaching in the colleges of law. Beginning
in 1976, the University of Saskatchewan has brought together senior law students and psychiatric
residents in a seminar course. This course first ran from approximately 1976 to 1986 with
different instructors from those presently involved. The course was not offered for eighteen years
and then was reintroduced in 2004. From 2004, the course has run yearly for 12-15 weeks
