Tomorrow NHS staff will continue to do what they do best — including dispatching ambulances, delivering babies and cooking up Christmas dinners. Thank you to everyone working over the festive period.

What an honour and privilege to hand out 87 of these to the staff working in Hillingdon Mental Health staff and not forgetting rehab and intermediate care. Chocolates for all the patients too. So proud to be part of these services. 🎄CNWL NHS FT

Feels this week we have jumped back 20-30 years in mental health to re-discover why we needed assertive outreach teams & a community treatment order. Nottingham tragedy is a disturbing echo of high profile cases at that time.

It feels that we could all do better, work more connected, in any or all comorbid dual diagnoses. Definitely more to do across the system.

The sad thing is, the depletion of mental health services mean we increase the risk of small number of mentally ill people doing horrendous things. We also fuel the stigmatisation of the vast majority of people with mental illness who are never violent but really do need support.

This is not a general point For years, the narrative around mental healthcare has ignored a group with psychotic illness who do not engage with services and who, when unwell, have high risks They need targeted support They need Assertive Outreach theguardian.com/society/2024/a…

We recently conducted a national linkage study of suicides by people under drug/alcohol services. 428 deaths in a year, 1/12 of all suicides in E&W. Most were men. Many faced economic adversity. Key message re joint working with MH services. NCISH sites.manchester.ac.uk/ncish/reports/…

There are 1600 suicides per year in UK mental health patients. Our studies NCISH have identified these 10 ways for MH trusts to improve safety, from safer wards to a learning culture. #WSPD2024

1 in 20 mental health patients who die by suicide are recent migrants to the UK. We found evidence of serious stressors and poor connection to support services. A #suicideprevention priority. Recent NCISH study. #WSPD2024 thelancet.com/journals/eclin…
