Care and treatment

At your assessment your assessor and you will have talked about the issues you have and your goals in relation to those issues.  You will agree a plan of care and treatment within mental health services or your assessor will tell you about other organisations who can help. 

If another organisation is the best route for you to achieve the things you want to in relation to your mental health, your assessor will give you their contact details or make an introduction, a referral, of you to them directly. 

Initial treatment sessions

If your plan includes further treatment within our adult community services, or community mental health teams (CMHT), you will be referred by your assessor to your local team for initial treatment sessions.  Our community mental health teams focus on your early contact with our mental health services to give you the best chance of getting better and supporting your recovery.
