Effect of liaison psychiatry on attitudes toward psychiatry, rate of consultation, and psychosocial documentation.

Abstract:

:Prior literature suggested that psychiatric liaison on medical wards would produce a more positive attitude towards psychiatry, more psychosocial chart documentation, and a higher consultation request rate. Over 3 years, liaison was conducted on two medical wards, and its effect was contrasted with two control (consultation only) medical wards. Liaison activities were more favorably received by consultees than consultation alone and increased the consultation request rate, but produced no change in psychosocial documentation. Additional effectiveness of liaison activities might be achieved through direct, focused interventions, and through active involvement of senior medical faculty.
