Abstract
The issue of psychiatric work with the medical staff has been reviewed from two points of view: a) There is some evidence that the medical staff is in psychological distress. Psychological help for the staff per se, however, is not recommended. b) There is quite a lot of evidence that staff attitudes/reactions influence the condition and adjustment of patients. It is very highly recommended to establish group work aimed at changing some staff attitudes, and by that improve patients' adjustment.
