Session Description
There are several strategies to manage Crisis in Psychiatry across the world. We intend to present the different approaches taken during crisis management in different nations. The symposium will commence with how home-based treatment is significantly effective in the time of crisis and shed light on the new models that are being undertaken in the crisis team of the UK in the north, which covers more than 400000 people in its vicinity. We will also discuss how the new model has allowed the patients to choose their treatment and psychiatrist or senior clinicians (Non-medical practitioners) for their reviews. Further, we will have a discussion in context to prescribing in Crisis worldwide taking a special account of difficulties faced by developing countries. Furthermore, we will elaborate on the current scenarios of crisis management and the experience of the speakers in Australia and New Zealand. Finally, we will address the recent advances in Crisis Management in the USA. The symposium will also include a segment discussing the varied experiences of Psychiatrists from across the globe which will encourage global mental health to deliver equal and best possible care to the patients during a crisis.
