Abstract
Working on inpatient psychiatric wards requires the ability to maintain a calm and compassionate demeanour in the face of patient distress. This article considers the role of flexible Reflective Practice Groups (RPGs) as a means of supporting staff to manage the impact of this distress on their own wellbeing, whilst maintaining an ethically sound practice.
