N2  - Twenty seven per cent of medical emergency admissions were found to have diagnosable psychiatric disorders, mostly mild. Although ward staff assessed 31.1% of admissions as having emotional or psychological problems, only a minority had diagnosable psychiatric disorders. Few patients were referred for specialist psychiatric help. This partly reflected the milder nature of problems identified by ward staff, and partly indifference to psychiatry.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
