#crisisteamfail A&E today

The crisis team head-shrink at A&E today, after the crappest of cursory interviews, suggested that J reads a book on Mindfulness. 

It hadn’t been her largest overdose, but significant enough considering how long she’s been out of hospital (2 weeks). No ward stay was offered today , the discharge from the Crisis Team still stands. Chat to your CPN next week etc. Some confusion as to who J’s community psychiatrist is, because they have mainly been locums.
In answer to “what are your expectations from today?” J says “I want to get home to feed my cat.” 

Assessment ends.
