Purpose Leave is an important part of life for both patients and clinicians in secure mental health learning disability settings. Patients breaching leave conditions (i.e. absconding or failing to return) represent a small percentage episodes; however when incidents occur there can be far reaching negative outcomes potential victims, the patient service. The purpose this paper devise risk assessment specifically decision making based on literature available. Design/methodology/approach Using...
In 2010, following a series of high-profile absconding incidents, electronic monitoring (EM) using Global Positioning System technology for patients on leave was trialled as part comprehensive protocol risk management and recovery. We conducted preliminary evaluation effect violation. The total number episodes violations over four-month period prior to the introduction EM compared with totals in two corresponding follow-up periods years after introduction. Total increased by almost 60%....
'Electronic Monitoring' (EM) uses devices to monitor individuals' whereabouts. In 2010, South London and Maudsley medium secure unit introduced EM individuals on leave. Analysis after two years revealed was associated with increased unescorted leave reduced violation; however, comparative costs were not established. This study aims compare of for patients by comparing average total cost per patient without EM. Costs compared before implementation Total each group divided number generate...
Dave Hearn explains how the use of a global positioning satellite device can help staff reduce absconding and protect members public from risk harm
To identify and describe the impact areas of a newly developed leadership development programme focussed on positioning leaders to improve student experience clinical learning environment.
Summary Coiled-tubing drilling (CTD) continues to play a dominant role in through-tubing sidetracking of wells on the North Slope Alaska. Recently several CTD candidates were targeted an overpressured reservoir. Three successfully CT sidetracked as pilot project this The ultraslimhole directional-drilling system with 2.75-in. nominal openhole diameter developed at Prudhoe Bay1 was used combination unconventional approach maintain overbalanced conditions when these wells.

Purpose The use of drug detection (sniffer) dogs in psychiatric settings divides opinion among clinicians and service users alike. This paper provides an overview the these within a Medium Secure Unit (MSU). approach described seeks to challenge preconceptions suggests that dog searching should be one component wider therapeutic working with patients co‐existing mental health substance misuse problems. Design/methodology/approach reflects on ten years' experience using MSUs. Findings A model...
Abstract This paper documents the development and first applications of ultra-slim diameter mud-pulse-telemetry directional drilling tools for through 3-1/2" production tubing. The highly successful Coiled Tubing Drilling (CTD) program at Prudhoe Bay has concentrated on equipment required to re-enter 4-1/2" larger tubing' sizes. Typical CTD re-entry operations have sidetracked existing wells a cost 25% 75% past conventional rotary operations. However, there are significant number Prudhoc...
Abstract Reliable, low cost coiled tubing window milling technology has become the cornerstone of ARCO Alaska's sidetrack program at Prudhoe Bay. began to investigate drilling in 1989. The grew into an aggressive field application this technology, with over thirty wells drilled last 2 1/2 years. program's first was cut below production a bottom hole assembly (BHA) fall 1994. To date, 14 have been sidetracked using technique. windows are off specifically formulated cement plug without use...
Abstract Re-entry sidetracking has become an important development tool in the oilfields of North Slope Alaska. To date, approximately 220 wells have been sidetracked through existing production tubing Alaska with coiled tubing. The easier candidates are diminishing number as this cost effective re-entry technique is more widely applied. Many recent candidate required cutting a window two concentric strings tubulars. Some 2 string windows were performed without significant problems using...
Summary Coiled tubing (CT) drilling is a rapidly growing new technology that has been used for shallow wells and reentry applications. Averaged over the last 4 years, number of directionally drilled with CT doubled each year from 3 in 1991 to 50 1995 (Fig. 1). A market evolved as being major application drilling. This through-tubing The motivation driving low cost rigless when overbalanced safe Christmas tree place underbalanced (for reduced formation damage). lower mobilization coiled unit...

Abstract This paper analyzes representative samples of downhole and surface measurements collected during a sidetrack operation with coiled tubing drilling unit. The data are classified into operational windows such as drill ahead, running in hole pulling out hole. They correlated reports hook load, pumping pressures, flow rates, slackoff. Correlations between the used to understand force transmission set-down, pick-up operations.

Abstract A critical requirement for directional drilling with coiled tubing (CT) is a reliable downhole means to manipulate the orientation of mud motor bend. Alaskan operations have traditionally used hydraulically actuated ratcheting orienters, thus avoiding complications wireline and control lines inside tubing. With highly refined field techniques well plans, fundamental drawbacks these orienters been adeptly managed on North Slope. Despite good success over years, orienting remained...
