Overcoming Crises in Hospital and Residential Care

The goals of this session are as follows: 1) to familiarize attendees with the complex system issues that child and adolescent psychiatrists encounter today when they work in hospitals and residential treatment centers, including forensic, financial, ethical, community, logistic, and personnel concerns; 2) to be more knowledgeable about compromised care as a result of the impact of these obstacles; and 3) to understand how high-complexity “outlier” cases test the care systems of inpatient units and to learn new strategies to meet these challenges.
