Article Abstract
Inpatient psychiatric units are heavily regulated physical environments designed around the twin aims of treatment and containment. Less formally regulated but no less important are emotional norms and tones that also contribute significantly to psychiatric care environments. Inpatient psychiatric units are co-created by patients and clinicians, but clinicians have authority that patients do not. This means that clinicians' management of their own transference and reactions is clinically and ethically important. This article defines transference reactions and draws on case examples to canvass how positive and negative transference reactions can influence inpatient care of patients who are suicidal.
