Reducing Reliance on Adult Mental Health Impatient Care (RrAMHIC) is about designing pathways of care, ready for implementation, which aim to advance ideas on how to reduce reliance on adult mental health inpatient care and this national event will provide a forum to learn, share information, highlight barriers to progress and discover potential opportunities.
Evidence indicates there are three strategic challenges to reducing reliance on adult mental health inpatients.
- Continuity of care
- Third sector and community involvement
- Governance arrangements and productive relationships between system partners
This session will focus on the work produced by RrAMHIC with presentations and discussions that will give you insights and strategies on how to progress work locally in the context of mental health. At the event we will hear from 3 speakers, as outlined below, along with an opportunity to take part via breakout sessions.
There will be presentations from:
- Linda Irvine Fitzpatrick, Strategic Programme Manager, Thrive Edinburgh SRO, Edinburgh Wellbeing Pact and Community Mobilisation, Honorary Senior Research Fellow, Strathclyde and Queen Margaret Universities
