These infographics contain highlights of everything we’ve achieved during:

Mersey Care successfully transitioned which means that all statutory Mental Health Act forms (for services using Rio only) should be completed using Thalamos. It’s the Trust’s expectation that you use this new process, so all admission, community treatment order, hospital, treatment and discharge forms should now be completed on Thalamos. Local authorities (approved mental health professionals) have gone live with Thalamos so will send forms to Mersey Care electronically. Find out more here.

It aims to make sure people who call the police get the best possible support and service.

    Life’s a beach (hut) at Mossley Hill

    14 February 2024

    Modern matron Tonia Smith was one of the first to view the new wellbeing service at Mossley Hill this week. Tonia, along with the site estates team Deana Huizer and Margy James joined the construction workforce on site at the launch of their immersive mental health ‘pod’. Set up with beach sand and a seaside feel, the virtual reality service from our partners is a way for a traditionally hard to reach group – construction workers – to access health and wellbeing at work.
