Multi-agency Mental Health Virtual Learning Sessions

Mental Health Stock

Virtual training sessions for staff that are designed around operational issues highlighted by the EEAST/Six Force Collaboration Strategic Alliance meeting are taking place in September.

The virtual learning sessions, which are available for staff to book on Evolve, will be an opportunity to review three operational case studies that have been put forward by professionals from the six Police forces and EEAST. 

During the sessions, attendees will enter into an interactive dialogue with facilitators from the Police and EEAST and are invited to submit questions to facilitate learning and develop a greater understanding of the multi-agency response.

The sessions are planned for two hours.

The Strategic Alliance chose ‘Managing and Supporting People in Mental Health Crisis’ as the first topic.

The case studies are taken from past incidents and highlight areas for learning relating to the Mental Health Act and the Mental Capacity Act. The sessions will cover issues relating to primacy, application, and legality.

It is hoped that this is the first of many such events as the 6 forces and EEAST team look to facilitate more integrated for the professionals responding to need within our communities.

Details of the planned sessions are as follows:
