A PMHNP on an inpatient psychiatric unit is preparing to discharge a 34-year-old female patient who was admitted for a major depressive episode with suicidal ideation. The patient has been stabilized on a new medication regimen and is no longer endorsing suicidal ideation. During the discharge planning meeting, the social worker recommends discharge to a partial hospitalization program, the primary nurse expresses concern that the patient has limited family support, and the attending psychiatrist suggests direct discharge to outpatient follow-up. The team members disagree about the appropriate disposition. How should the PMHNP facilitate this interprofessional communication?
