Our community mental health services have been awarded a 'good' rating by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), becoming the only service of its type nationally to achieve such a positive review at the time of the inspection.
The ‘good’ rating was awarded despite the acute nature of the services and the system wide pressures faced by the community mental health teams by working collaboratively and flexibly and sharing best practice both across the trust and with external partners.
Many congratulations to all community mental health services staff on this really positive news. Well done!
