Wood N. Early Intervention in Psychiatry 2025;19(10):e70087.
[We examined sociodemographic, pathways to care (PtC), and clinical factors associated with early intervention for psychosis (EIP) service wait time. Our findings indicate that individual factors, PtC, and mode of contact influence wait time for EIP services. More than a quarter of patients were not seen within 2 weeks, indicating that targeted support in community EIP services is needed to meet clinical guidelines.]
