Predominatelys delivered by Law Hound lecturers Steph Barber and Sue Edwards, Datalaw’s selection of mental health law courses have been designed to meet the training needs of all those interested in this area of law, regardless of their role or level of experience.
Those new to mental health law courses, including paralegals, legal executives and trainee solicitors, will benefit from our selection of introductory 1-hour courses which include Understanding Mental Health Law - Basic Roles and Treatment Rights and Treatment Rights and the aptly titled mental health act training course An Introduction to the Mental Health Act. Our wide range of targeted bite-size sessions will also prove invaluable; 5 Statutory Principles of the MCA 2005 and When Can a Detained Patient be Subject to Seclusion are just a few examples of the mental health courses which we offer, and which are perfect for those wishing to complete mental health training online.
Experienced practitioners who require more in-depth mental health law training may find titles including Discrimination and Equality for those Suffering from Mental Illness and Assessing Capacity and Making Decisions under the MCA 2005 of interest.
All our mental health act training webinars are designed to provide viewers with practical guidance which, once implemented, will have a positive and immediate impact on their practice. For example, our Mental Disorder Within the Criminal Justice System will offer indispensable advice on how best to represent a client suffering from a mental disorder in respect of a criminal matter, whilst the title Mental Health Tribunal is perfect for both those starting out representing clients at the tribunal, and more experienced practitioners who would like to hone their skills in respect of this critical area of mental health practice.
Other mental health law course highlights include Police Powers – Search and Removal and Police Powers – Patients Found in Public Places which will provide viewers with an essential overview of police powers under the mental health act.
