The coroner’s concerns
– (1) The Neighbourhood Mental Health Team should ensure that their procedures are sufficiently robust regarding the sifting of clients for consideration by Mind. (2) The procedure for the return of patients from Mind to the care of the Neighbourhood Mental Health Team should be transparent and encouraged if the Mind worker feels that is appropriate. (3) If so requested by the Mind worker the patient should be returned to the care of the Neighbourhood Mental Health Team and the involvement of the Mind worker discontinued.
