| dc.description.abstract | Recent years have seen a surge in interest in mental healthcare and some reduction
in stigma. Partly as a result of this, alongside a growing population and higher levels
of societal distress, many more people are presenting with mental health needs,
often in crisis. Systems that date back to the beginning of the National Health Service
still form the basis for much care, and the current system is complex, hard to
navigate and often fails people. Law enforcement services are increasingly being
drawn into providing mental healthcare in the community, which most believe is
inappropriate. We propose that it is now time for a fundamental root and branch
review of mental health emergency care, taking into account the views of patients
and the international evidence base, to ‘reset’ the balance and commission services
that are humane and responsive – services that are fit for the 21st century. | en |
