The out-and-about consultation

Abstract

I find that in my consulting rooms I am on home territory and that there is some reasonable control over the events that occur with my patients. In the rooms there is all the equipment, files and backup that I need. This all changes once I step outside the door into the street outside. When I am out-and-about in the community, either socially or on a shopping trip or to play sport, I leave a lot of the control and firewalls behind.
