Reference system for mental patients

Reference system for mental patients

JAKARTA (JP): An official of the Jakarta Mental Hospital (RSJ)
underlines the importance of a reference system of hospitals for
mental patients in a bid to improve services.

RSJ director Amir Husein Anwar says a reference system is
badly needed to enable doctors to choose a certain hospital which
specializes in a particular discipline to handle patients.

Such a reference system is important to help hospitals cope
with the increasing number of people, including Jakartans,
suffering from mental disorders due to life's complexities.

"The system is needed to cope with this problem," Amir was
quoted by Antara as saying. (09)
