Our Approach

Person-centred care pathways enabling genuine co-production of idiosyncratic plans

Developing Relationships

Developing relationships is key to successful engagement in therapeutic programmes and our MDT prioritise getting to know the person in our care through formal and informal assessments and activities.

Our Approach

Recovery - the path that lies ahead

Through the concept of recovery, we promote independence, self-esteem, social inclusion and the discovery or rediscovery of personal identity. Our dedicated team works towards managing symptoms through coping strategies and therapy that is completely tailored to the individual.

Factors such as psychological needs, physical capacity, social ability and cultural preferences are always considered. This helps with the design of an all-inclusive care plan, providing realistic and achievable targets to aim for.

  • Offer innovative mental healthcare to adults
  • Recognise individuals and the stories behind their experiences
  • Adopt a strengths model: Inviting genuine collaboration and co-production
  • Provide meaningful recovery-focussed care and interventions
  • Constantly strive to offer the least restrictive; most person-centred care and treatment
  • Work towards independence and safe discharge

The 5 Cornerstones of our Organisation

3. Equality and Diversity

We embrace difference, paying attention to each individual’s background, gender, culture, ethnicity and age.

4. Holistic Care

Our core focus is on an individual’s needs and we always consider the psychological, social and environmental factors.

5. Recovery

We encourage positivity throughout the personal journey of recovery.

Individualised plans support people achieve recovery

The model of care informs a structured, person-centred care pathway where collaborative care enables genuine co-production of idiosyncratic plans of care. These individualised plans support people in our care to achieve their recovery and wellness goals and aspirations in the context of evidence-based care and interventions.

Boundaried therapeutic relationships underpin all interactions and interventions and provide a secure base for learning, development and recovery. All care and interventions are evidence-based, needs-led and individualised to ensure specific packages of care are delivered within a structured and time-limited care pathway.

The pathway is phased, it is flexible and allows for movement forwards and revision of previous phases as required by the individual to ensure optimal effectiveness of interventions offered.
