If a pt has alcohol level more than legal limit (let’s say double), can you do a psych evaluation on him and potentially admit him to inpatient unit if he meets criteria in the ED? People around here are saying you wait until level becomes under legal limit then you do evaluation and decide. He is pretty coherent even while 2x or 3x legal limit.
