How to access this service
At the assessment, you will meet one of our team in a private and confidential space. Generally, you will only meet us on one occasion.
We will carry out a thorough assessment of your mental health needs. We may want to speak to your relative or carer but will always ask your permission before doing so.
The assessment includes questions about:
- Your current thoughts and feelings
- Risks to yourself or others
- Current social circumstances
- How you are managing day-to-day life
- Any history of mental health problems
Following the assessment, we will inform you about any treatment we are referring you for. We will also provide advice and information about your mental health.
We cannot offer routine mental health appointments in A&E, help you obtain housing, or provide support for benefit reviews. We do not offer follow-up appointments.
