QNCC SPECIAL INTEREST DAY: CRISIS AND INTENSIVE TREATMENT TEAMS

We are holding a special interest day looking at crisis and intensive treatment teams.

Presentations/workshops have been confirmed from intensive outreach and crisis teams in Chester, Wakefield and Hampshire, including topics covering how services was set up, lessons learnt and outcomes so far, as well as specialist interventions offered, with more presentations to be confirmed. The day will also include an open discussion to give you the chance to ask any questions you may have, and for teams to think about the next steps involved in setting up these services.

The programme is currently being put together and will be finalised once all presentations have been confirmed. We are still looking for presenters from learning disability services, so please get in touch if you know anyone who would be interested in presenting.

The day will be held on Friday 28th January 2011 (approximately 10.30 – 16.30), at :

College Centre for Quality Improvement

Standon House

21 Mansell Street

London

E1 3AA

It will be free of charge to all members and will coincide with the release of the new, revised QNCC standards which will include standards for crisis/intensive teams.
