[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a healthcare professional, this is infuriating. If the government actually wants to get involved in "helping" the homeless with mental health issues they would invest money into our abysmal mental health system. I have patients waiting days, if not weeks, on holds in the ER waiting for inpatient psych beds. It's a completely inappropriate place for them because they are not getting the care they need and the atmosphere is not helpful. And it takes up resources that we don't have. [/quote] Do we go back to pre-Reagan times and open mental institutions (hopefully with better care)?[/quote]
