Forensic Mental Health Services and the Economic Downturn Project

Building on an existing work looking at the impact of the recession on mental health services, the Policy Unit and the College's Forensic Psychiatry Faculty worked to identify more specifically what impact the recession and predicted disinvestment within the NHS might have on forensic mental health services.

This project involved a survey of clinical directors working within forensic mental health services. The survey results formed the basis of discussion at the Faculty of Forensic Psychiatry Annual General Meeting in early 2010.
