| Abstrakt: | This case-controlled study determined the utility of the READMIT index to identify the risk for 30-day readmission of patients discharged from an urban community hospital psychiatric inpatient unit. Data was collected from 118 matched patient pairs from 2017 to 2018. Findings demonstrated the READMIT index did not effectively discriminate those patients who were likely to readmit within 30 days. However, the following factors were associated with likelihood of 30-day readmission: the inability to care for self, number of lifetime readmissions, the comorbidity of liver disease, as well as a history of substance abuse.
