A new strategy is in place to deliver local, inclusive, safe, personalised and therapeutic care to meet the needs of individuals in Nottingham and Nottinghamshire.
The Integrated Mental Health Pathway Strategic Plan 2024/25-2026-27 aims to realign mental health inpatient services into an integrated mental health pathway over a three year period to ensure the right care is being delivered, in the right place, at the right time, and in the least restrictive environment for local people.
Under the strategy there will be a focus on supporting people to live well in their local communities with the building blocks of good mental health in place to maintain positive mental health and resilient communities.
People will have access to good quality care and support, as well as information and care to manage their own mental health and wellbeing. They will know where to go to access the right care at the right time to prevent the need for accessing services or an inpatient admission.
Should a patient need a stay in hospital, all partners who make up the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care System, will work together to ensure they receive good quality care and return to the place they call home as soon as possible where appropriate support will be in place.
This strategic plan has been developed with system partners across health, local government, the voluntary community and social enterprise (VCSE) sector and experts by experience who have used local services. They will continue to work together to deliver the strategic plan over the next three years.
