Summary of services
It has two distinctly separate functions. 7 rooms are designated for the accommodation of clients with Mental Health difficulties who require tenancy related support. Women accessing this service have a comprehensive assessment of need and are then involved in the formulation of a support plan designed to address these needs. This plan is then followed and regularly reviewed with the aim of promoting independence in the future.
Access to the remaining three rooms is managed jointly by P3 and the Sandwell Crisis and Home Treatment team as an alternative to Hospital admission. Clients using this facility require access to 24 hour support for a short period of time due to a relapse of their mental health difficulties. During their time at the service their support will be reviewed, directed and delivered jointly by the Crisis and Home Treatment Team and P3 Staff.
