When you need mental health support but can't leave the house, a domowa wizyta psychiatry, specjalistyczna usługa medyczna polegająca na wizycie lekarza psychiatry w miejscu zamieszkania pacjenta. Also known as wizyta domowa psychiatra, it is a critical access point for people struggling with depression, anxiety, psychosis, or recovery after hospitalization.

A psychiatra, lekarz specjalista zajmujący się diagnozowaniem i leczeniem zaburzeń psychicznych, w tym depresji, schizofrenii, zaburzeń lękowych i uzależnień who comes to your home doesn't just hand out prescriptions.

This matters. Studies show home visits improve adherence to treatment, reduce hospital readmissions, and help people feel seen when they’re at their most vulnerable. And if you’re worried about privacy—your employer won’t know you saw a psychiatrist. Polish law protects your medical confidentiality completely.
