Abstract
Little is known about what patients value in psychiatric crisis services or how they compare community-based services with those received in the emergency department. Three focus groups (n = 27) were held of participants who had received psychiatric crisis services in emergency departments or a community mental health center. Participants described care experiences and preferences. Focus groups were audio recorded, transcribed, and coded using a value-based lens. Themes included appreciation for feeling respected, basic comforts, and shared decision-making as foundations of quality care. Participants preferred the community mental health center. Research should address long-term outcomes to motivate change in psychiatric crisis care.
