入选标准

  • All patients being received after a Behaviour of Concern” (BOC) call, initially assessed in the BOC room during EM pharmacist working hours (7am-9pm Monday to Friday).
  • Caring for patients with behavioural concerns in the Emergency Department (ED) is a common occurrence. Violence and aggression, self-harm, absconding, and assault are often a consequence of patients in acute distress who react unfavourably to a restrictive, unfamiliar and often re-traumatising hospital environment. The causes of aggression are usually multifactorial and include characteristics and severity of mental illness, the rules and limitations of the environment, past experience, waiting times to see clinical staff, comorbidities such as underlying psychiatric illness or are facilitated by exposure to alcohol and other drugs such as methamphetamines. These behaviours pose threats to patients, visitors, and staff who must be protected from harm.

排除标准

  • BOC call for patients already in the ED, apart from in the Waiting Room
  • Patients less than 18 years and greater than 65 years
  • Patients not requiring medication for treatment or restrictive intervention
