Abstract:
The eighth-floor lounge of Calgary General Hospital's Forensic Unit affords an unimpeded view of the city's skyline. But behind its barless windows is a locked, high-security area housing individuals charged under the justice system. In most cases they are there for a 30-day psychiatric assessment to determine their fitness to stand trial for charges ranging from loitering to sexual assault to first degree murder. In all cases they are there for high quality psychiatric care provided by a multidisciplinary team, of which nurses are key members.
