and emergency interviewing. The volume then provides guidelines for intervening with
suicidal patients, potentially violent patients, and vulnerable victims of violence, as
well as patients facing life-and-death medical decisions, with careful attention to risk
management and forensic issues. Also addressed are emergency-related conditions including
self-mutilation, alcohol and drug-related crises, adverse reactions to psychotropic
medication, and psychological symptoms of medical conditions. Finally, chapters consider
the effects of emergency intervention on clinicians and offer suggestions for managing
stress.
