The development of more rotational training schemes in psychiatry for registrars and senior registrars is introducing more trainees to mental handicap. Generally, however, mental handicap is not regarded by the trainees as the most interesting or highly-prized assignment; because of the nature of the patients, the long-stay hospitals involved and unfamiliarity with its problems, mental handicap lacks the appeal of some other subspecialties in psychiatry.

1. These recommendations are derived from the report of a working party on education and training set up by the Section for Social and Community Psychiatry in 1984. A companion paper deals with recommendations for Senior Registrar posts in Rehabilitation and in General Psychiatry. The recommendations for the most part do not represent new departures, but are mainly explicit descriptions of what is currently included in good training programmes, developments which are already increasing or recommendations made in previous documents. With the forthcoming expansion of psychiatric care in the community, appropriate training is increasingly required.

The co-existence of physical and psychiatric illness in so much of the elderly population poses diagnostic and therapeutic problems for psychiatrists, geriatricians and general practitioners alike, with the presence of physical illness strongly influencing and sometimes limiting the options for treatment of the psychiatric illness. Recognition of this has resulted in the Section of Old Age Psychiatry of the Royal College of Psychiatrists recommending that senior registrar training in old age psychiatry should include a one month attachment to an approved geriatric medicine unit.

The aim of this paper is to continue a dialogue regarding the possible future use of log-books during training. The Royal College of Psychiatrists has been considering their use at various stages of training in psychiatry. Cole & Scott (1991) rejected log-books as a tool for self-audit during registrar training because they were often not kept up to date. The situation in higher professional training is more complex; there is not the clear focus of studying for the Membership examination and there are many more training components to cover during a four year period. Thus, we feel that a system for self-audit and monitoring could well prove valuable at the senior registrar level. There is a tension for senior registrars with whom we discussed this issue at the last Annual Meeting of the Section and among colleagues on our rotation.
