Social Minister Jakob Forssmed (KD) reacts strongly to the police union’s alarm that society fails mentally ill people.
– You get completely desperate, so it should not be, he tells Sweden’s Radio’s Ekot.
In the Police Federation’s investigation, only seven percent of those who responded that collaboration between the police and the psychiatry are working well. The survey shows examples that people who are driven to the psychicist are printed after only a few hours.
Jakob Forssmed says the regions must prioritize psychiatry. He also updated that the government is working to make cooperation with open care efforts within the municipalities better so that patients printed can be captured.
