When it was originally published in 2009, the Textbook of Hospital Psychiatry was the first comprehensive guide to hit the market in more than a decade. This updated edition includes new material in each of the chapters, with a focus on treatment, staffing, and quality-of-care changes, and offers new, forward-looking chapters on consumer and family perspectives, collaborative care, safety, and more.
Providers and policymakers agree that integrating behavioral treatments into regular courses of patient care helps address postdischarge needs, including safe housing, reliable transportation, and nutrition. Behavioral wellness is currently benefiting from increased public attention, but disparities in access continue to plague people of color and members of the LGTBQIA+ community, who often struggle to find culturally competent treatment. There is a significant need for dedicated psychiatric hospitals and dedicated units in general hospitals to meet America's mental health needs.
Despite the challenges facing clinicians in these unprecedented times, psychiatric hospitals continue to adapt and find ways to provide appropriate care. The Textbook of Hospital Psychiatry is a must-have resource for those working in psychiatric settings.
