About Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry
Consultation-liaison psychiatry bridges mental and physical health, supporting patients in general hospitals. Serious illness often brings depression or anxiety, and delirium, a state of sudden confusion, is common in older patients.
Treating the mind alongside the body improves recovery and quality of life.
