A new community multidisciplinary team based in primary care is described and the experience of the first year discussed. The effect the team has had on the use of psychiatric services in its first year was studied. There was a threefold increase in the rate of inception to care, leading to a doubling in the prevalence of treated psychiatric disorder. There has been a reduction in the demands made on the hospital out-patient services, but no change in the use of in-patient resources or emergency contacts.
本文描述了一个新的基于初级保健的社区多学科团队，并讨论了其第一年的经验。研究了该团队在第一年对精神科服务使用情况的影响。接受治疗的起始率增加了两倍，导致已治疗精神障碍的患病率翻了一番。对医院门诊服务的需求有所减少，但住院资源的使用或紧急联系情况没有变化。
