MENTAL HEALTH APPOINTMENTS
Mental Health appointments aged 18 and over
There are dedicated mental health appointments for our patients aged 18 and over. Our specially trained mental health nurses offer appointments throughout the week. They provide a single, longer appointment to explore your current circumstances, and consider the most appropriate support. They can introduce some self help strategies, services you can access independently, make onward referrals or liaise with GP regarding medication if this is needed. There may be occasions where it is felt a review would be beneficial- this will be directly booked or requested by the mental health nurses.
They are not a counselling or psychological therapies service.
These appointments can be booked at reception or by calling 01822 612247
