The recent formation of a Liaison Psychiatry Group within the College reflects the growing integration of psychiatry with other medical specialties in the general hospital. The Group was established to foster the development of psychiatry in relation to medical and surgical patients, including its clinical, teaching and research components. The title, Liaison Psychiatry, is not an ideal term but has become firmly established in other countries to denote that area of psychiatry where the psychiatrist has particular skills to contribute to the care of the physically ill, and to those in whom psychiatric disorder presents in somatic terms.1

There are various approaches to providing specialist care for patients with delirium in general hospitals. Those described in the literature include joint geriatric/psychiatric units and consultation–liaison (CL) psychiatry services. The Ferdinande Johanna Kanjilal Travelling Fellowship, from the Royal College of Psychiatrists, UK, provided an opportunity to more fully understand each model. This letter outlines observations of the Australian Fellow (AW) of different service structures in the care of hospitalized older people with delirium in the United Kingdom and Ireland.
