Clearly there is a strong requirement for these initiatives to be worked up in partnership with our local mental health services for clinical and governance purposes.

Community Mental Health Services

Community Mental Health Services- Additional and Enhanced Support. Our new model seeks to promote early intervention and preventative approaches to support and increase the mental health and emotional wellbeing resilience of service users and their families/carers. We also wish to break down the barriers and further integrate our mental health and physical health services. As an example, we established the 'Connect' service during the Covid pandemic to provide telephone support for service users discharged from secondary mental health services. We wish to evolve this approach further to include support for service users before they require secondary mental health services and include approaches like peer support/experts by experience networks that complement our secondary mental health services.
