Hospital Patients

Psychological problems of general hospital patients are related to physical illness and disability, and/or physical disorder produced by affective distress. The typical emphasis on psychopathology during academic training, and the orientation towards psychiatry during internships maladapt clinical psychologists for work with such patients. This argument is supported by diverse illustrations: psychological disturbance in pregnant women, psychological problems of patients in intensive care units, the inappropriateness of a psychopathological approach to the psychological aspects of coronary heart disease, and the adaptive value of denial in some instances of physical illness. Psychological reactions to medical conditions can be understood better in terms of developmental crisis. Implications for training are mentioned.

Hospital Doctors

Although referral by general hospital doctors is a major pathway to specialist psychiatric care, and there is known to be much clinically unrecognised psychiatric morbidity among general hospital patients, consultation and liaison services have received much less emphasis than community care. A 1984 survey found that consultation liaison services were haphazard (Mayou & Lloyd, 1985). Despite recent evidence of increasing clinical and academic interest, few local strategic plans refer to consultation and liaison services; even when mentioned they are given a lower priority than community developments (Kingdon, 1989).
