To consider a report on Assertive Outreach changes.
Minutes:
The Committee considered a report on the outcome of consultation on delivering the Assertive Outreach Function (AOT) from Community Mental Health Teams. The outcome of the Level 2 consultation was:
CWP must provide the same level of contracted Assertive Outtreach service based on clinical need;
Avoid disadvantaging service users of Community Mental health services;
Ensure that access to AOT remained for service users who required it within contractual service levels.
A full evaluation of the consultation was circulated at the meeting.
RESOLVED: That the consultation be noted and any comments forwarded to CWP via the Secretary by 14 February.
