ABSTRACT
Demands for telepsychiatry have increased due to the challenges of COVID-19. The global pandemic caused a significant increase in anxiety and depression and a worsening of eating disorder symptoms, while the implementation of social distancing both exacerbated these mental health issues and disrupted the in-person delivery of mental health services. Rapid adaptation of telepsychiatry in the acute inpatient setting has been reported with favorable outcomes in patient experiences. This article reports our experience with a transition to telepsychiatry services on an acute eating disorder unit and the impact on quality of care. Forty-two inpatients on an eating disorders unit completed 410 surveys evaluating their experience with telepsychiatry. Simultaneously, surveys were distributed to physicians to identify technical and connectivity issues. Our experience showed that patients on an eating disorder unit, who had an average length of stay of 22 days, were very satisfied with telepsychiatry, with few technical or safety issues.
