Emergency Departments and acute mental health patients: RCEM report

A new report from the Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM) reveals that around half of medium‑ and high‑risk mental health patients in A&E were not properly observed during their stay last year.

The report highlights significant gaps in safe observation and underscores the need for improved practice, awareness, and support for clinicians.
