Summary

This study looks at whether allowing people with severe psychiatric conditions to admit themselves to the hospital (instead of doctors deciding) can reduce forced hospital stays, improve symptoms, and boost quality of life. About 564 patients in Stockholm, Sweden, will try this approach. Researchers will track hospital visits, use of restraints, and patient well-being.
