Dealing With "Fallout" From Inpatient Group PsychotherapyEugenia Hospital
Jefferson Medical College Fallout from group psychotherapy involves feelings that have been brought out by the group discussion being carried outside of the group into the inpatient community. Group therapists act as educators to teach unit staff about the potential for fallout and to help them deal with it in a therapeutic manner. Fallout most frequently takes the form of complaints about the group, complaints about authority figures, and suicidal or homicidal ideas or behavior. This article describes a general model used to deal with the fallout from group psychotherapy, as well as several specific types of fallout that can occur in the inpatient milieu.
