Abstract
This paper focuses on the differences between liaison and consultation psychiatry, emphasizing the social role. To carry out systematic liaison intervention, a psychiatrist must become a fully accepted high-status member of the ward culture. Examples of how a liaison psychiatrist can effect change in his/her social role are provided.
