Something I've read about recently that hadn't occurred to me prior is people who are suicidal not seeking care because they don't want to be involuntarily admitted and lose their job for no calling no showing and people who report losing their job for no calling no showing after being involuntarily hospitalized for suicidality. I can see why you wouldn't want an actively psychotic patient (or perhaps a manic one) one to contact their employer, but do your hospitals allow non-psychotic/non-manic involuntary admits to contact their employer before the go to the psych unit?
