Description

The Trust is looking to enhance support for people experiencing a mental health crisis or distress through the development of its new Rapid Response Service (formerly known as Crisis Resolution & Home Treatment). An important element of this is the provision of a new "crisis pad".
The service will offer people experiencing crisis or distress access to a calm, safe, environment providing emotional and practical support/therapeutic interventions and where necessary, rapid access to a suitably qualified practitioner who can assess their needs. The service will operate outside of normal work hours.
Aim:
 To improve support for people experiencing a mental health crisis out of usual working hours
 To support crisis resolution through brief treatment interventions and techniques that will deliver self-care
 To reduce the number of hospital admissions due to the lack of alternative support out of hours.

This will be achieved by:
Providing a facility to operate a twilight service between the hours of 2000 and 0200.
Supporting the service with access to appropriately qualified staff who can effectively triage and signpost people/carers to the scheme through the Rapid Response Service.
Implement skills/competency based training and support to volunteers and staff involved in delivering the service.

The successful organisation will provide support to people experiencing a mental health crisis or distress through support staff and possibly volunteers. They will be supported by the Rapid Response Service (RRS) where required and appropriate. All referrals will be triaged through the RRS. The crisis pad physical facility will likely be provided by the Trust; the location has yet to be identified. It will be open to people in the Hull & East Riding area.

Value of contract: in the region of 100- 120k per annum
Term: 1 year with possible extension
