A psychiatric forensic clinical specialist is working with a defendant as competency evaluator.
 
  A staff member at the mental hospital asks her, Why are you spending so much time with that guy? You spend one-to-one time with him and even go to activities with him. And I have seen you writing volumes. Usually we just give these people medication for a while and return them to the court.. What response by the psychiatric clinical specialist would be most appropriate? a. My role is to become an advocate for the defendant, so I have to know him well and build a trusting relationship with him..
  b. The specialized assessments I make on behalf of the court require very lengthy and detailed interviews, so it takes a lot of time..
  c. My focus is providing intensive psychotherapy to ensure the defendant has become competent before he returns to court..
  d. I spend the time observing, assessing, and documenting his competency, write a report, and prepare expert testimony for the court..
