Commissioners Decision - Schizophrenia
Wed 06-Jul-05 10:44 PM

I KNOW I have read a Commissioners Decision on a cl with schizophrenia which held that just because she/he hadn't suffered exacerbations of her/his condition within the past 2 years it still constituted a need for continual supervision because the risk of an exacerbation wasn't too remote a possibility. Can't find it on the OSSC website and I need it for Thursday.......help!!!!

**sheepish look** I found it
Tue 05-Jul-05 11:21 AM

Ok so it was bipolar affective disorder and it was 5 years not 2 years, but I did find it. Does anyone have a full copy of R(A)1/83 please or know where I can find it?

If all the usual places don't provide the decision e-mail sscsc@dca.gsi.gov.uk">osscsc@dca.gsi.gov.uk and ask for it. They're very quick to respond.
