Psycessentials: A Pocket Resource for Mental Health Practitioners
Both the App and the manual are very user-friendly, arranged in a logical order related to the questions clinicians might have while assessing a client. There are links to legal standards and rules as well as diagnostic criteria for various disorders, common psychiatric medications, assessment tools, etc....I have had my copy for only little more than a week and have already used it a number of times. In short, it is well worth the price and is very convenient to carry in either printed form or as an app. ----Gary R.
