Description

The Adult Mental Health Network has identified the requirement for step up
provision (Crisis House), following the same principles of least restrictive care
environments and at a lower cost base. A proposal has been made to the Trust
board, whereby the Authority (Lancashire Care) would work in partnership with a
provider in the provision of two crisis houses for up to six people (each) to stay
for up to seven nights. Support will be available to individuals 24 hours per day,
every day of the year using a co-produced, person centred recovery approach,
working closely with clinical teams. The service would be accessed via the
Authority's Crisis Resolution & Home Treatment teams (CRHTT) with referral
facilitated 24/7 by waking night staff provision. The service will be delivered in a
home from home environment in a spacious property including one to one
support and group work. Upon leaving the service, people would be offered
access to on line therapeutic tools to support their transition. The Authority is
seeking a partner to provide two such 'Crisis House' settings in or conveniently
located near to Chorley and Burnley.
