  • Robust regulatory scrutiny is an unavoidable and necessary part of professional life for public sector professionals. Inspection and investigation can lead to poor mental health for individuals already working under pressure owing to increased workload and anticipation of poor outcomes. Although good regulation maintains standards and provides accountability to government and the public, regulators must face their obligation to understand the wider impact of their practices on the mental health of those they evaluate. This article discusses how regulation affects public sector culture and the potential risks and negative impact of regulatory practices and highlights how clinicians, working in occupational practice, are well placed to recognise ‘regulatory stress’ among public sector workers and offer vital support, guidance and advocacy.

  • Acute behavioural disturbance (ABD) is a highly contentious topic, with debate about its validity as a construct. Particular concerns have been raised about how it places societal problems ‘in’ people – disproportionately from minority ethnic backgrounds – medicalising being a victim of violence. The author reflects on his experiences ‘with’ ABD.

  • Summary

    The London Nightingale was designed to be the largest field hospital in UK peacetime history. It was built in a matter of weeks on the site of an existing exhibition centre, with a final capacity planned for 4,000 intubated patients who had COVID-19, and 16,000 clinical staff. Supporting the mental health of its staff was a key element from its inception, with a specialist team engaged to create and implement an evidence-based, tiered, occupational health model. The emphasis was on minimising distress and moral injury, and maximising post-traumatic growth through a rapid, de-medicalised, forward psychiatry model that encouraged return to work where possible. The London Nightingale was fortunately never required at anything near its capacity, but the mental health team was operational throughout its life, and openly disseminated its standard operating policy and learning to other UK hospitals, many of which used it as a template to design their own.
