Mean age of the clients was 32.8 years 50.2% were male and 49.8% were female 77.9% of all needed admission, 44.6% of those which were not admitted 39.1% had moderate or high risk of suicide. Cause of non-admission was lack of hospital beds in 93.2% of cases. Parameters such as diagnosis (psychotic or mood disorder), longer duration of illness, higher risk of suicide and history of suicide attempt, though in more need of being admitted, didn’t relate significantly with admission probability. Besides, patients with substance abuse and those with more recent suicide attempt, though in more need of being admitted, were significantly less admitted (p<0.001) those who needed to be admitted because of risk to harm self and/or others, were significantly less admitted than other patients. In logistic regression analysis only two factors of gender (female) and education correlated significantly (p-value of 0.001 & 0.05 respectively) with admission probability in case needed (with odd ratios of 2.63 and 0.93, respectively). <p></p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: kashida DIRECTION: ltr TEXT-INDENT: 0cm LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt unicode-bidi: embed TEXT-ALIGN: justify TEXT-KASHIDA: 0% mso-line-height-rule: exactly mso-layout-grid-align: none"><b><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt LETTER-SPACING: -0.2pt mso-bidi-font-family: 'B Lotus'">Conclusion: </span></b><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt LETTER-SPACING: -0.2pt mso-bidi-font-family: 'B Lotus'">It seems that there is a serious lack of necessary hospital beds for patients and the need for admission doesn’t determine admission probability.<p></p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="TEXT-JUSTIFY: kashida DIRECTION: ltr TEXT-INDENT: 0cm LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt unicode-bidi: embed TEXT-ALIGN: justify TEXT-KASHIDA: 0% mso-line-height-rule: exactly mso-layout-grid-align: none"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt LETTER-SPACING: -0.2pt mso-bidi-font-family: 'B Lotus'"><p> </p></span></p>
