Area of Science:

  • Forensic Psychiatry
  • Public Health
  • Patient Safety

Background:

  • Forensic psychiatric patients often require external medical care, posing unique safety and custody challenges.
  • Many patients are transfers from the Department of Corrections (DOC), requiring secure transport protocols.
  • Existing literature on safely transporting high-risk forensic patients is limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe a forensic inpatient facility's procedure for determining transport levels.
  • To outline a risk assessment process for patient transportation.
  • To implement quality improvement measures following a past escape incident.

Main Methods:

  • Development of a standardized procedure for assessing transport needs.
  • Implementation of a risk assessment tool to determine transport level.
  • Review of a past escape incident to inform procedure development.

Main Results:

  • A systematic approach to risk assessment for patient transport was established.
  • The procedure aims to ensure appropriate security levels for external medical transports.
  • Quality improvement measures were identified and implemented.

Conclusions:

  • Established procedures are crucial for managing the safety and custody of forensic patients during external transport.
  • A comprehensive risk assessment is vital for determining appropriate transport security.
  • This facility-developed procedure enhances patient safety and security during medical transfers.
