Description: this is a multidisciplinary team providing intensive treatment to adults experiencing acute mental health problems or crises. Treatment is provided in service users' own homes, with the aim of preventing admission to a psychiatric in-patient unit.

We also offer early discharge from inpatient admissions and support and information to informal carers. We can provide intensive support which may include several home visits to a service user per day. The Home Treatment team can refer the service user to other appropriate services once the crisis is resolved.

Common conditions treated: services are for people with severe and / or enduring conditions: anxiety (severe only); bipolar disorder (manic depression); depression; eating disorders (if combined with mental health crisis); learning disabilities (if combined with a mental health crisis); obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD); panic; personality disorders; phobias; post traumatic stress disorder; schizophrenia; serious self harm; sexual mental health conditions (if combined with a mental health crisis); substance misuse (if combined with a mental health crisis).
