Agree with ArtleyWilkins,
In Can. most psych hospital care is short term with the exception of schizophrenia.
On my 3 admissions, they did the global assessment of functioning rating scale and a quick depression screening, but that was all.
The more comprehensive testing has all been in an outpatient setting to confirm diagnosis for eligibility for a program, in one case, and because my psychiatrist thought I had more going on than I was presenting with in another.
