The psychologist typically assesses psychological difficulties and provides a professional view of the nature and extent of psychological issues related to the relevant case. We aim to offer assessments within 1 month and, depending on volume of medical records and supporting information relevant to the case we complete reports within 2 – 3 weeks.
A medico-legal assessment mainly consists of the following stages:- A clinical interview
- Administering, scoring and interpretation of psychometric measures (as appropriate)
- Reviewing of medical records
- Interviewing 3rd parties for collateral information (as appropriate)
- Report writing
