Maintaining Partnerships in a modern Mental Health Access Service
Helen Pike, Clinical Manager, Crisis Services and Steve Cull, Approved Mental Health Practicioner Lead, Sunderland City Council
Esther Beadle: Back in 2011, there was barely any specific crisis service for older people or learning disabilities. There is now. #MultiAgencyNE
Claire Andre: Hearing from AMHP Steve Cull about the work done in Sunderland improving the MHA Pathway. #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: "Action under #MentalHealth Act can also cover those affected by acute brain injury, or even adverse reaction to medication" #MultiAgencyNE
David O'Brien: #MultiAgencyNE barriers to innovation in mental health crisis care come in all shapes and sizes
Tony Gray: #MultiAgencyNE things that come through strongly today are the commitment of the people at the front line to make changes and leadership.
The Value of the Mental Health Liason Officers & Clinical Police Liaison Lead with in-patient services
PC Anthony Pattison, Mental Health Liason Officer, Northumbria Police and Claire Andre, Clinical Police Liaison Lead, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust
Esther Beadle: Great stuff on role of #mentalhealth liason police officers at #MultiAgencyNE
Northumbria Police: PC Anthony Pattison was crucial in changing how we deal with mental health sufferers in person in our region #MultiAgencyNE
Michael Brown OBE: The estimable Claire Andre is now taking the stage at #MultiAgencyNE - talking about why her very unique role came about.
Esther Beadle: From ace Northumbria Police Sgt Anthony Pattison - why we need #MentalHealth liason police officers. #MultiAgencyNE
Kirsty Smith: Northumbria Police what a great input from PC Anthony Pattison, "what price can you put on prevention & diversion," very proud. #MultiAgencyNE
Morpeth Police (of Northumbria Police): #Proud of #MorpethNPT A/Sgt Pattison. Working hard & breaking down barriers at our local hospitals #MultiAgencyNE
Old Bill (Scott): Role of #mentalhealth Liason Officer shows importance of named neighbourhood #police officer responsible for MH hospitals. #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: NTW NHS' fab Claire Andre up now... On why we need #NHS Clinicians liaising with police. #MultiAgencyNE
Michael Brown OBE: How to build effective relationships with the Police? "Buy them doughnuts!" says Claire Andre's 7yr old son. #wiselad #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: Claire Andre on #mentalhealth perceptions - "do you still lie everyone on a couch?" #MultiAgencyNE *The answer is no, by the way
Esther Beadle: "Having a clinical to go straight to means police get good, immediate guidance on what help someone needs in a crisis." #MultiAgencyNE
Michael Brown OBE: "Why can't the police just arrest people?!" ask MH; "Why can't you just keep them locked in Hospital?!" ask Police - Claire Andre #MultiAgencyNE
Kirsty Smith: Claire Andre loved your quote, re partnership working in mental health it's about "learning & adapting together" #MultiAgencyNE
Northumbria Police: Don't think we could have achieved all the things we have done without her (Claire Andre) support #TeamWork #MultiAgencyNE
Michael Brown OBE: By far the best presentation of the day: Claire Andre - strategic and operational: knows what she's trying to achieve #MultiAgencyNE
The role and achievements of Liaison and Diversion in Custody & Courts
Maria Leonard, Team Manager, Liaison & Diversion and Bev Bowery, North East Strategy & Project Manager, HMCTS
Michael Brown OBE: Hearing about Liaison and Diversion in the North-East: so I'm hoping to hear when we should liaise and when we should divert. #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: There are now six peer support workers for people in the criminal justice system - #MultiAgencyNE
Old Bill (Scott): Collaborative #mentalhealth training for CPS, judiciary & probation as well as #police should be a fact, not a wish #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: In Bedlington there wasn't a place for #mentalhealth in custody. There is now. Let's keep going. #MultiAgencyNE
Old Bill (Scott): Speedier justice, as not waiting weeks for #mentalhealth reports #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: One case of a male charged with 2X familial murder has severe #MH problems, case dealt with in 18 weeks, rather than a year. #MultiAgencyNE One outcome of #mentalhealth teams being able to get involved straight away in justice system. #MultiAgencyNE
Old Bill (Scott): So many opportunities to do even more to improve how #police & #mentalhealth services work together to keep people safe! #MultiAgencyNE
Esther Beadle: So #MultiAgencyNE is trending again. All about communication and engagement. #Twitter is a perfect place for it!
