Evaluation of the EssenCES in a neurodevelopmental inpatient service for adolescents.
Journal of Intellectual Disabilities : JOID 2018 September
Ward climate is a key element within psychiatric settings, associated with positive clinical outcomes. The Essen Climate Evaluation Schema (EssenCES) is a ward climate measure, which is validated for use within UK forensic settings. It has been studied within neurodevelopmental psychiatric inpatient settings with mixed findings on its appropriateness, and there is a dearth of EssenCES research which has been conducted within an adolescent psychiatric inpatient setting. The present study piloted the EssenCES within an inpatient psychiatric neurodevelopmental setting for adolescents in the East of England, in order to explore its usefulness within this setting and to provide preliminary normative data for a child and adolescent mental health services inpatient learning disability population. Staff and service users from a locked ward ( N = 28) and low secure ward ( N = 31) participated in the pilot. Results are discussed in relation to the body of the literature on ward climate, including consideration of discrepancies in the results between wards and discrepancies between staff and service.
