title: [The integration of psychiatry services in the general hospital].
abstract: This work consist of a bibliographic review about the inclusion of the psychiatry in general hospitals. Through it we were able to approach some historical aspects concerning the presence of mentally ill people in general hospitals, the creation and organization of psychiatric units in general hospitals, the hospitalization of psychiatric patients in institutions lacking specific units and the services of psychiatric interconsultation. The work consists of a part of a Master's dissertation in which we observed that there is a great amount of literature about the subject; however, all of them under the view of the nursing team. No references were found about the viewpoint of the mentally ill person about the hospitalization in a general hospital.
