Psychiatry in Ireland; yes a Cinderella that needs a root and branch assessment and have a centre of excellence commited to young people and all in need. Let’s look to America to follow how a profession which is essential in the world we live in, falls towards criminality. Let us ensure as Ireland seeks to improve our inadequate mental health system, we can avoid the problems highlighted on this site “Psychiatric Crime Database”. Let us embrace mental illness, addiction and other related matters in a way that there is hope for people so afflicted. Too often people are left prey to predators.

CAMHS … there is a reported case related to below;

he United States CodeChapter 109a, Title 18, Section 2242, Sexual Abuse, states, “Whoever…knowingly…engages in a sexual act with another person if that other person is…incapable of appraising the nature of the conduct…shall be fined under this title, imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.”

There is a long-standing consensus in the medical profession that sexual contact or sexual relations between physicians and patients is unethical. The prohibition against such was incorporated into the Hippocratic Oath: “I will come to the benefit of the sick, remaining free of all intentional injustice, of all mischief and in particular of sexual relations with both female and male persons….”

In no other area of medicine is the patient in such a state of emotional vulnerability as when they visit a psychiatrist or psychologist. It is a relationship in which the patient can be most easily exploited and manipulated.
