Abstract:
A liaison rounds is presented, one attended by all members of a consultation-liaison (C-L) team along with the medical director of a burn unit. This structure is designated as a "reverse liaison rounds," as it is the opposite of the conventional liaison meeting, which consists of one C-L consultant and the total nonpsychiatric team. The content centered on a self-inflicted burn case in which countertransference issues involved a nonpsychiatrist. The unconventional format of the reverse liaison rounds provided all parties with new knowledge, perspectives, and insights into the interactions between the C-L consultant and the burn unit team.
