Perinatal psychiatric emergencies in rural Australia: In urgent need of attention
Perinatal psychiatric emergencies represent a highly interventional area of psychiatry. Across the spectrum of psychiatric disorders, few can be attributed with such specificity in anticipated time of disease onset and severity of outcome. It is imperative that we address the lack of access to speciality perinatal psychiatric care for women who reside in rural Australia.
