Mental Health
What did we say in Healthy Ambitions?*
1
The Mental Health Pathway identified considerable variation in services provided in localities and the speed in which services have been modernised.
It also found some pathways complex and difficult to navigate, for professionals, users and carers.
They therefore recommended that:
- Help when it is needed – no queues
- The adoption of a vision for mental health “to live free from discrimination, disability and poverty”
- A single access point to ensure you get the right support quickly
- Investment in community mental health services to ensure capacity meets demand
- Mental health teams attachedto GP practices
- Modernised dementia services.
