“…This sampling method is useful where security agencies and organisations might be reluctant to share confidential and sensitive information with those they perceive to be 'outsiders'. This method has been used in the areas of drug use and addiction research (see Sims & Iphofen, 2003a, 2003b, 2003c where information is limited and where the snowball approach can be initiated with a personal contact or through an informant (Biernacki & Waldorf, 1981). However, one of the problems with such a method of sampling is that the eligibility of participants can be difficult to verify as investigators rely on the referral process, and the sample includes only one sub-set of the relevant user population (Biernacki & Waldorf, 1981).…”

In many security domains, the 'human in the system' is often a critical line of defence in identifying, preventing and responding to any threats (Saikayasit, Stedmon, & Lawson, 2015). Traditionally, such security domains are often focussed on mainstream public safety within crowded spaces and border controls, through to identifying suspicious behaviours, hostile reconnaissance and implementing counter-terrorism initiatives. More recently, with growing insecurity around the world, organisations have looked to improve their security risk management frameworks, developing concepts which originated in the health and safety field to deal with more pressing risks such as terrorist acts, abduction and piracy (Paul, 2018). In these instances, security is usually the specific responsibility of frontline personnel with defined roles and responsibilities operating

“…One of the major challenges facing clinicians with those patients with co-morbidity is the provision of evidence-based psychological interventions delivered by appropriately qualified staff. It has been identified previously that these patients are often passed from one service to another (Sims et al , 2003; Sims and Iphofen, 2003a, b). In addition this lack of appropriate service provision has been identified within population of in-patients (Sims et al , 2007).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify and report on the mental health needs of those attending substance misuse services (SMS) adhering to the diagnostic criteria as defined in DSM 5 with reference to common mental health disorders. It also examines differences in the numbers of appropriately trained cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) therapists and highlights the lack of provision of CBT reflected in the much smaller number of accredited therapists in Wales compared to other parts of the UK. Design/methodology/approach This population was identified by way of an audit of data collected via the out-patient clinics conducted by the author. Findings The paper identifies a high proportion of patients who attended SMSs as having complex psychological need as a consequence of co-morbidity. Research limitations/implications The results of the audit may have limitations but the implications from the findings suggest potential value in looking more at clinical outcomes following evidence-based psychological interventions. Practical implications A conclusion from the findings is suggested value in a more structured approach to looking at clinical outcomes. Originality/value This audit was undertaken in North Wales. There is no IAPT or matrix-structured Level II CBT training programmes available in Wales. The audit identifies the need for more evidence-based psychological interventions such as CBT linked to the development of such services. The apparent lack of political will to change the status quo is also highlighted as a problem.
