BackgroundThe National Confidential Inquiry into suicides in England and Wales found that a quarter of suicides are preceded by mental health service contact in the year before death. However, visits to accident and emergency departments due to self-harm may not lead to a record of mental health service contact.AimsTo determine the proportion of suicides preceded by accident and emergency attendance in the previous year.MethodWe obtained the list of probable suicides in Leeds for a 38-month period, and examined the records from thecity's accident and emergency departments for a year before each death.ResultsEighty-five (39%) of the 219 people who later died by suicide had attended an accident and emergency department in the year before death, 15% because of non-fatal self-harm. Final visits dueto self-harm were often shortly before suicide (median 38 days), but the National Confidential Inquiry recorded about a fifth of them as‘not in contact’ with local mental health services.ConclusionsAlthough many suicides are preceded by recent attendance at accident and emergency departments due to non-fatal self-harm, local mental health service records may show no recent contact. Suicide prevention might be enhanced were accident and emergency departments and mental health services to work together more closely.

Bir Hospital, the first general hospital with specialist services was established in the country in 1889 A.D. When I came back to Nepal after MBBS in 1971, most of the specialties like Medicine, Surgery, Gynae & Obs, Opthalmology, ENT, Psychiatry, Anesthesiology, Radiology, Emergency department with 24 hours service were there. Paediatric OPD service was available, and children were admitted in Kanti children hospital Kathmandu. So mental health service in Nepal was started in a general hospital with different specialties.

Meta Analyses

Objective: Consider whether mental health service users and carers meaningfully engage in care planning and whether care planning adds value to patient care. Conclusion: A review of the meta-analyses and systematic reviews of service users and carers identified many barriers to their meaningful engagement in care planning. No research has demonstrated any measurable benefits or positive outcomes linked to mental health care planning.
