RESUMO
We evaluated antibiotic-prescribing across 111 mental health units in the Veterans' Health Administration. We found that accurate diagnosis of urinary tract infections is a major area for improvement. Because non-mental-health clinicians were involved in most antibiotic-prescribing decisions, stewardship interventions for mental health patients should have a broad target audience to be effective.
