[quote=Anonymous]I've been down this road... My ER (Suburban) took kid back, put a nurse at his door to make sure he wouldn't hurt himself, had a social worker evaluate him, then referred him to a PHP that had a spot. We were desperate at the time - kid had ideation, so no attempt. Wish I had pushed for an evaluation at one of the private treatment places some PP mentioned. Primary care doc was completely useless. Our medical system is completely ill-equipped to handle these situations. Overall, ER was more traumatizing than helpful for SI. If you can find any other resource, use it.[/quote]
