Within this framework an assessment of the need to provide bath improved training and some consider able training in common for the four psychiatric disciplines involved has been made. Evidence from U1e writer's observations reached during thrills' years or supervision of psychic social work students' group therapy in the therapeutic milieus together with examples from the students I process records has been cited to support the conclusion that these needs do exist.
