Abstract

This study uses data from the Resident Assessment Instrument Mental Health (RAI-MH) on everyone admitted to an Ontario inpatient psychiatric facility between October 2005 and June 2007 to describe patients characteristics and service utilization, and to determine whether these differ based on prioritization of mental health issues in the Integrated Health Service Plan (IHSP) put forth by the Local Health Integration Network (LHIN) providing service.
