Suggest Treatment For Acute Schizophrenia

My sister has been diagonosed with acute Schizophrenia and my parents who are old are unable to manage her. She is adamant and does not eat, sleep, giving medication is also difficult. She doesnot come out of her room, in such a situation how do you admit her in a hospital. The doctor has asked her to be admitted.

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

In that case, you can take help of police or a physician to get her sedated. You can call a doctor at home for injection and after sedative effect, you can take her to hospital. I think, this is the only possibility in your sister case. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
