Mental Health - Support and Recovery Services

Support and Recovery Services are recovery-orientated services provided to patients and clients with severe and enduring mental health needs.

This part of our service includes the Recovery and Support Teams (formerly known as Community Mental Health Teams), Community Eating Disorder Service, Community Forensic Service, Personality Disorder Service, Autistic Spectrum Disorder Service and Community Addiction Service. It also includes Mental Health Supported Living Schemes, Continuing Care at St Luke’s Hospital, and the Dementia Assessment Unit at Mullinure Health and Wellbeing Centre (St Luke’s Hospital).

Access to the services

Access is through a GP via the Mental Health Referral and Booking Centre.

Useful publications

The Protect Life Group has produced a guide to Useful Contacts for Mental & Emotional Wellbeing which is widely available.

The Promoting Wellbeing Team has produced 5 Ways To Wellbeing which focuses on the themes of connecting, being active, taking notice, learning and giving.

A Bibliotherapy Scheme has been developed in partnership with GPs, health professionals and libraries. All libraries in the area have access to 50 books covering areas such as addiction, anger management, depression, bereavement, eating disorders, relationships and stress management. Library staff will be happy to show you how to find the information you need - they also have a resource guide which will also contain details of helpful numbers, support groups, websites and leaflets. Or ask your GP for more information.

Beating the Blues is a computerised Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) programme which is accessible via the internet. CBT helps you change the way you think and behave in order to feel better. Watch the introductory video by clicking here or ask your GP for more information.

Recovery

Recovery focuses on a person’s right to build a meaningful, satisfying and fulfilling life with or without the continuing presence of mental ill health. For more information click here.
