[Bobby Pratap @BobbyPratapMH]

On 'diversion from a&e'. Firstly, a sense of scale: MH accounts for ~3% of a&e activity and MH attendances havent increased. Id suggest that yes, we can and are doing more to meet more needs away from a&e, but this is likely to have relatively little impact on overall pressures

[Dave Appleton @appo1977]

Look forward to you and your teams supporting mental health First Response services with this programme- exciting times ahead!!

[Louise Gill @lougill1984]

Enjoyed learning with @NationalKufHub yesterday. Looking forward to developing the trust wide training programme.

[Amrith Shetty @amrithshetty]

Take home messages for me from the @cwpnhs rehab away day 
1. A key function of rehab is to build hope & a key skill is building relationships.
2Ideal setting for rehab is in ones own home within their own community. 
3We need to start prescribing PRN meaningful interaction.

[Dave Appleton @appo1977]

Proud to be involved with such an innovative and forward thinking team whose drive is based on patient centred care, improving quality of life and hope for the people we support.

[Amrith Shetty @amrithshetty]

Had a fantastic day with the community rehab team @cwpnhs (MhIST). The commitment, passion and strong team ethos was striking. We are going to be embedding peer supported open dialogue into our daily practice @lucymahon_ot @appo1977 @ConnorJohston @AnushtaS
