Résumé

"The major objective of this dissertation was to develop and pilot a new mental health screening form, the interRAI Brief Mental Health Screener (BMHS) to enhance the ability of police officers to identify [persons with serious mental disorder] (PSMD), and to support their decision-making. A second objective was to develop a model that best predicts which persons are most likely to be taken to hospital by police officers and which persons most likely to be admitted. A final objective was to analyze the impact that interacting with PSMD has on police resources in terms of the amount of time police officers spend on mental health related calls for service."--Page v.
