Emergency Room Psychiatry

Emergency Room Psychiatry involves the assessment and treatment of individuals experiencing urgent mental health crises, such as severe anxiety, suicidal thoughts, psychosis, or extreme agitation. Trained mental health professionals quickly evaluate patients to determine the severity of their condition, ensure their safety, and provide immediate interventions or stabilization. This process may include counseling, medication administration, or arranging further care. The goal is to address urgent mental health needs promptly, providing support and safety during a critical moment, and connecting patients with appropriate ongoing treatment when necessary.
