Description

The NHS NW London ICB required the provision of Severe Mental Illness (SMI) Outreach Engagement Services in Hillingdon.

Individuals living with SMI are often difficult to engage with for health checks and ongoing treatment, with high dropout or DNA rates. Poor engagement may lead to worse clinical outcomes, with symptom relapse and potential hospitalisation. Numerous variables may affect level of treatment engagement, including accessibility of care, and a patient's trust that the treatment will address his/her own unique goals.

Providing person‐centred care, including shared decision making, is an approach that focuses on an individual's unique goals and life circumstances. Use of person‐centred care in mental health treatment models has promising outcomes for engagement. Particular populations of people have historically been difficult to engage, such as people from black and minority ethnic groups, young adults experiencing a first episode of psychosis, individuals with coexisting psychotic and substance use disorders, and those who are homeless.

This contract was awarded to Hillingdon Mind via a Below Threshold quoting exercise.
