Require Info On Doctor Procedures With Attempted Suicides Posted: 02-06-04 00:58am
This isnt necessarily vital in terms of
how some people require urgent help but it
would be greatly appreciated if someone
could help.
I'm currently writting a film script with
suicide as one of the plotlines.
A character cuts her wrists but she's
caught just in time. She is admitted to
hospital.
All I need to find out is a detailed idea
of how doctors/psychiatrists/nurses deal
with such a situation. From patching the
wound to paperwork involved. I've looked
everywhere on the net and its suprisingly
hard to find such info.
I need to know....
Anit-depressant drugs given and volume.
Procedure with
psychiatrists/psychologists
administering to psychiatric hospital
etc antything really. Oh and its the
american procedure. So includes insurance
form, companies, documentation etc. Any
bad/good stories. Efficient/inefficient
medical help. Anything real.
Please rest assured i'm handling the
subject content with the respect and care
for detail it deserves and am in no way
trivalising it. Just need
help......Looked all over the net
thanx in advance for your assistance.

Yeah, the last post was a great idea.
You could even find a nurse. Actually, I
may be able to find out exactly for you,
my best friend is almost done with nursing
school and I am sure has friends in the
field. If you cannot find on your own,
let me know.

and hey, I have been trying to get the
motivation to write a screenplay for a
year now. I really need to get on it.
