- Short term intensive support following hospital discharge
- Crisis support The Service will operate a model based on the principles of recovery, reablement and habilitation, aimed at supporting people recovering from mental ill-health to move through the service by providing the opportunity and confidence to regain some of the skills lost as a consequence of mental ill health.
The support will enable people to regain or learn new skills to help maintain long term independence and confidence to gain or retain employment, carry out activities and develop relationships that give their lives purpose and meaning, with a focus on promoting choice, control, independent living, social inclusion and wellbeing.
