August 27, 2018

This year, over four million people in the U.S. with behavioral health conditions — psychiatric, substance-related, or both — will enter an emergency department (ED) that is not prepared to properly treat them. This gap in care is causing widespread suffering while undermining the economics of our E.Ds. In this paper, you will learn how an integrated approach to emergency psychiatric care empowers EDs to properly evaluate and treat behavioral health patients from the moment they enter the ED through discharge.
