Frequent Flyers: Psychiatric Inpatient Readmission within 30 Days

Friday, May 24, 2019 · Washington, DC

Oral · Clinical Science

Despite the high prevalence of psychiatric hospital readmissions within a 30 day period, there is a lack of research on the predictive factors. Understanding the factors that lead to rehospitalizations will be relevant for identification of increased vulnerabilities within the patient population, discharge planning, and allocation of resources.
