作者描述了市中心综合医院的紧急精神病学服务如何能够扩展其职能并加强与社区精神卫生机构的联系。帮助急诊科与社区机构建立更密切关系的一个主要因素是它与州政府签订的合同,对服务于服务区域的州立医院精神科的所有入院情况进行评估。应急部门负责分类并为各机构提供后援,协调多机构案件的管理,并每周为机构工作人员举行教育会议。作者通过案例说明了单位和机构工作人员如何协作以确保患者护理的连续性。
The authors describe how an emergency psychiatry service in an inner-city general hospital has been able to expand its functions and strengthen its ties to community mental health agencies. A major factor in helping the emergency unit build closer relationships with community agencies is its contract with the state to perform evaluations of all admissions to the state hospital psychiatric unit serving the catchment area. The emergency unit performs triage and provides backup for the agencies, coordinates the management of multiagency cases, and holds weekly educational conferences for agency staff. Using case examples, the authors illustrate how unit and agency staff collaborate to ensure continuity of patient care.
