Taking risks in some form is something we all do every day, and we take for granted our freedom to take such risks as we choose. For many service users, a bureaucracy that is fearful of a blame culture means that they often do not get the chance to take the risks they are entitled to, and their lives are impoverished as a result. While we normally view risk in terms of danger and consequence, we must attempt to redress the balance and recognise that there are many potential benefits to risk-taking.
Steve Morgan author of Risk Decision-making Steve Morgan worked as an occupational therapist on an acute inpatient unit in the mid-1980s before taking up roles in community mental health and assertive outreach in inner-city London services from 1987 to 1997. He spent seven years working in the Sainsbury Centre for Mental Health training section before leaving in October 2001 to establish his own practice development consultancy: Practice Based Evidence. He gained an MA in Practice Development in Mental Health in 1998, with the National Centre for Work Based Learning at Middlesex University.
