Young People on Ward Support

Project completed in partnership with:

Two separate commissions from LSC ICB to support ward clients on Children’s mental health wards in Blackburn (12 months support), and Blackpool (6 months support) to support young people with a range of on-ward therapeutic support sessions in response to known or emerging needs to reduce anxiety, reduce crisis and conflict, develop coping strategies and time to talk through any worries. Outcomes to young people are Increased engagement with ward-based counsellors, reduced anxiety and stress on the ward, identified negative thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, develop coping strategies for negative thoughts and behaviours, improved progress, reduced self-harming and suicide intent and reduced barriers to engaging with support on discharge.
