13  Social Work Team – Consists of Social Workers, Social Care Officers, admin, AMPS.  Community Support Outreach Team – Consists of 5 supervisors, 8 community outreach workers.  Resource Team – 6 staff part time and fulltime.

14  Work with service users who have enduring mental health problems.  Work under FACS criteria for people with substantial and critical needs.  Work with multi-agency and community services.  Support service users to remain independent within the community.

15  Identify when service users are becoming unwell.  Support the transition from hospital to home when people have been admitted and ready for discharge.  Provide reablement within the community.  What is reablement?  Create support plans which are person- centred.  What is a Support plan?

16 Providing personal care, help with daily living activities and other practical tasks, usually for up to six weeks, reablement encourages service users to develop the confidence and skills to carry out these activities themselves and continue to live at home.

17 A care plan (sometimes called a care and support plan, or support plan if you're a carer) sets out how your care and support needs will be met. You should be fully involved in the preparation of your care plan, and you and anyone else you request should also get a written copy. The care plan must set out: The Needs Identified by the Assessment the needs that the authority is going to meet, and how it intends to do so for a person needing care, for which of the desired outcomes care and support could be relevant for a carer, the outcomes the carer wishes to achieve, and their wishes around providing care, work, education and recreation where support could be relevant the personal budget information and advice on what can be done to reduce the needs in question, and to prevent or delay the development of needs in the future where needs are being met via a direct payment, the needs to be met via the direct payment and the amount and frequency of the paymentsdirect payment Your care plan should be individual to you, and you should be allowed to have as much involvement in the development of your plan as you wish.

18  Mental Health Act  Community Care Act  Mental Capacity  Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards  Adult Protection

19 The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) are part of the Mental Capacity Act 2005. They aim to make sure that people in care homes, hospitals and supported living are looked after in a way that does not inappropriately restrict their freedom. The safeguards should ensure that a care home, hospital or supported living arrangement only deprives someone of their liberty in a safe and correct way, and that this is only done when it is in the best interests of the person and there is no other way to look after them.Mental Capacity Act 2005care homehospital This factsheet looks at who is affected by DoLS, explains what the safeguards are, and outlines the process for getting authorisation for a deprivation of liberty and how to get it reviewed. DoLS apply in England and Wales, but Northern Ireland (which does not have a mental capacity act) has no such system in place. The Mental Health Act 1983 (c.20) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom which applies to people in England and Wales. It covers the reception, care and treatment of mentally disordered persons, the management of their property and other related matters. In particular, it provides the legislation by which people diagnosed with a mental disorder can be detained in hospital or police custody and have their disorder assessed or treated against their wishes, unofficially known as "sectioning". Its use is reviewed and regulated by the Care Quality Commission. The Act has been significantly amended by the Mental Health Act 2007.ActParliament of the United KingdomEngland and Waleslegislationmental disordersectioningCare Quality CommissionMental Health Act 2007 Care Act 2014 A Bill to reform the law relating to care and support for adults and the law relating to support for carers, to make provision about safeguarding adults from abuse or neglect, to make provision about care standards, to establish and make provision about Health Education England, to establish and make provision about the Health Research Authority, and for connected purposes. The Mental Capacity Act (MCA) is designed to protect and empower individuals who may lack the mental capacity to make their own decisions about their care and treatment. It is a law that applies to individuals aged 16 and over. Examples of people who may lack capacity include those with: dementia a severe learning disabilitylearning disability a brain injurybrain injury a mental health conditionmental health condition a strokestroke unconsciousness caused by an anaesthetic or sudden accident Adult Protection A term used in health and social care agencies in the UK for the safeguarding of vulnerable adults who may need protection from neglect, potential or actual harm or abuse.
