What this Trial Is About

In the absence of easy access to second-line ambulatory care, the number of 'inappropriate' psychiatric emergency visits is increasing, with emergency departments becoming the gateway to mental health care. This is the context in which the 'med@psy' system was set up in the Toulon-Provence-Mediterranean metropolitan area by a private psychiatrist. It facilitates access to psychiatric second referral for General Practitioners (GPs) by pooling the 48-hour supply of psychiatric consultations in real time. It is assumed that this system will facilitate access to outpatient psychiatric care and help to optimize the organisation of patient care and follow-up. The aim of this study is to evaluate the med@psy system in the care pathway for patients with psychiatric disorders. This study main objective is to compare the proportion of patients with a psychiatric disorder who will receive outpatient follow-up 1 month after a visit to a psychiatric emergency department without hospitalization (Group 1) versus 1 month after a consultation with a psychiatrist within 48 hours via the med@psy system (Group 2).
