In the context of demographic evolution, psychiatric care needs increase steadily in most western countries. Given the financial limitations, it is mandatory to establish appropriate care priorities in order to avoid psychiatric hospitalisations by assisting care providers, general practionners and nurses, at home or in the nursing homes. A crisis team has been established 18 months ago within the Division of old age psychiatry in Lausanne. The care program included immediate assistance in the community, assessement, crisis counseling, medication consultation and referral for psychiatric services providing an alternative to hospitalization. The first results indicate that this intervention is well accepted by the users and correspond to a real need.
在人口结构演变的背景下，大多数西方国家对精神科护理的需求稳步增加。鉴于财政限制，必须确定适当的护理优先事项，以便通过在家中或养老院协助护理人员、全科医生和护士来避免精神病住院治疗。18个月前在洛桑老年精神病学部设立了一个危机处理小组。护理计划包括在社区提供即时援助、评估、危机咨询、药物咨询以及转介至提供替代住院治疗的精神科服务机构。初步结果表明，这种干预措施深受用户欢迎，且符合实际需求。
