Abstract
Psychiatric attendances and prolonged delays in transfer of care are common in Emergency Medicine. We discuss an article by Kim et al published in Academic Emergency Medicine, February 2022, on the effect of establishing a multidisciplinary EmPATH unit for the care of medically stable patients attending with suicide attempts or suicidal ideation. We provide critical analysis of the article, and summarize the social media discussion and a podcast in which the authors discuss their work.
