As with all patients about whom I'm not certain, I'd get a second opinion. There's nothing that says you have to have only two assessors. I don't do a lot of assessments. The assessments I get involved with involve cases in which there are two assessors and they can't decide on an issue when it involves a psychiatric illness. We're at liberty to call up our colleagues and bring in other assessors. We want to make sure we get this right.
This is an irrevocable decision. This is not a decision that anyone—the people who assess, the patient, their family or the providers—takes lightly. We must make sure we get it right. I think using the skills of the psychiatrist and the backup of our colleagues in the community, we have ample resources to get this right in assessing an individual patient.
