SVT Nyheter Öst has portrayed psychiatry in Östergötland in several reports.
We accompanied the newly started psychiatric ambulance and told them that the support for survivors in the event of suicide has major shortcomings.
- We want to do a comprehensive review of the entire psychiatry in Östergötland to see what we need to do better, says Fredrik Sjöstrand (M), who is chairman of the health and medical care board in Region Östergötland.
More call treatments are needed
An improvement that needs to be made is to increase the amount of talk therapy for depression and anxiety.
- We are very low when it comes to Region Östergötland.
In the video, Fredrik Sjöstrand explains what needs to be improved based on what has been described in the report.
