Open record access in child psychiatry

About the project

The project’s objective is to problematize open record access in child psychiatry from the perspectives of both the documenting medical staff and the parents of child patients. 

The main research questions are:

-What impact does open record access have on medical staff in child psychiatry and parents of child psychiatry patients?

-What does transparency in sensitive documentation do to autonomy, documentation practices, honesty, and behavior?
