 John- Most would agree that starting therapy would be indicated. This is not emergent, but I'd recommend starting as soon as reasonable. What the later means is-- taking care of ongoing psychiatric, substance dependency issues, making sure that patient education and support networks are established. Hope this helps, BY | ||||||||
