Abstract

Racial discrimination is a phenomenon that is reported to occur throughout many domains of service provision in health care and mental health care, and is a major research concern of the National Institute of Health. Many service delivery venues have received attention to address the potential presence of racial discrimination, although a form of mental health service delivery in hospital emergency rooms known as emergency services has received sparse attention. The current study is an investigation into the presence of racial discrimination and the potential impact of such discrimination in a rural Southeastern three county public mental health system. Methodological considerations of the research approach are also discussed.
