BACKGROUND
Clinical experience suggests that non-psychiatrists' knowledge of mental health legislation in relation to emergency detention is inadequate. However, most non-psychiatrists will use this legislation at some point in their career.
METHODOLOGY
A questionnaire about emergency detention legislation was circulated to non-psychiatric medical staff to test their knowledge of the provisions relevant to the general hospital.
RESULTS
Two hundred and seventy four medical staff replied (a response rate of 82%). Results showed that an understanding of detention procedures and applicability were markedly deficient, irrespective of grade, specialty or experience.
CONCLUSION
The results indicate a need for increased education and awareness about emergency detention legislation especially in view of the implementation of the Mental Health (Scotland) Act (2003).
背景
临床经验表明，非精神科医生对与紧急拘留相关的心理健康立法的了解不足。然而，大多数非精神科医生在其职业生涯的某个阶段会使用这一立法。
方法
向非精神科医务人员发放了一份关于紧急拘留立法的问卷，以测试他们对与综合医院相关条款的了解。
结果
274名医务人员回复（回复率为82%）。结果显示，无论级别、专业或经验如何，对拘留程序和适用性的理解都明显不足。
结论
结果表明有必要加强对紧急拘留立法的教育和认识，特别是鉴于《精神健康（苏格兰）法案》（2003年）的实施。
