Effectiveness of a Novel Emergency Department Psychiatric Care Model in Reducing Length of Stay
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel Psychiatric Model of Care in reducing the length of stay for patients with psychiatric emergencies in the emergency department (ED). Their study found that implementing this model significantly decreased the median ED length of stay from 8.35 hours to 5.61 hours, particularly benefiting patients on involuntary holds and those transferred to psychiatric facilities. This suggests that the model may enhance patient flow and care delivery in the ED setting.
