A survey of Midwest physicians’ experiences with patients in psychiatric distress in the emergency department

Jack Brodeur, BS, OMS III; Alyse Folino Ley, DO; and Michelle Bonnet, MD, MBA

Emergency medicine physicians commonly stabilize patients with acute psychiatric distress, such as suicidal ideation. Research has shown that suicidal ideation is difficult to manage in emergency department (ED) settings and that patients in psychiatric distress are often “boarded” in the ED while awaiting more definitive care. The authors examine the attitudes and experiences of emergency physicians regarding the care of patients in psychiatric distress. Special attention is given to suicidal ideation due to its prevalence in the United States.
