    Author: Slaby AE, Perry PL.
    Journal: Int J Psychiatry Med; ; 10(1):1-8. PubMed ID: 7380614.
    Abstract:
    The pattern of use of psychiatric emergency services of a large university hospital are examined for a twelve month period. Factors associated with social isolation and poverty were found to be linked both with multiple episodes and disposition to a public facility. The implications for health planners are discussed.
