A person who is homeless that checks himself into the Emergency Department with a complaint of suicidal ideation. This gets the patient a PEC (physicians emergency certificate) which gets him/her a mininmal of 3 free days of room/board and meals.
We had 10 homeless patients check into the Emergency Department in 3 hours. They know what to say (suicidal) to get food and shelfter. They are homelesscidal which is a huge waste of psychiatric bed resources.
