Another resident has progressed to an open prison this week 👍🏻 we plan to contact him in a few weeks to see how he’s getting on 📮 we’ve also started our small groups which are going well & residents are reflecting on their progression during difficult circumstances #OPDPathway

Today we received the Enabling Environment award by Royal College of Psychiatrists 🏆Couldn’t be prouder of our community in creating a supportive and positive social environment for all who work and live on our PIPE 😃🎉 #OPDPathway #EnablingEnvironment

An eventful week with more structured sessions, processing new referrals, residents cooking for the unit 🥘 another resident getting his cat D and some useful supervision sessions reflecting on schemas and how to support the people we work with 👍🏻 #ProgressionPIPE #OPDPathway

Two new residents arriving this week and one transferring out to Cat D, our Transitions committee work hard to support people going through such changes 👍🏻 #ProgressionPIPE #OPDPathway

Today we heard from a previous resident who’s getting on well in open conditions. He sent a letter to explain the transition and to help reduce anxieties of others waiting to transfer, he still feels a part of the community despite having left us some months ago! #ProgressionPIPE

We attended a multidisciplinary meeting today regarding a man being transferred to the PIPE; lots of discussion about this transition & how to best support him. Lots of support from @HmpHull & our healthcare partners to put effective plans in place 👍🏻 #OPDpathway #ProgressionPIPE

Fantastic to meet HRH The Princess Royal this week and mention our PIPE! #OPDPathway

Looking forward to bringing some of our PIPE activities back, everyone on the unit is feeling positive 👍🏻

What a busy week.. transfers for 4 of our men to open prisons; such a huge step in their journey but one they’ve prepared for over a no of years. We’re now trying to improve our follow up process by liaising with our #OPDpathway colleagues so we can continue to provide support 👍🏻

We had a new arrival join our service today from a secure hospital, very thorough handover and lots of multidisciplinary input to make this a helpful transition to maintain the changes he has made so far 👍🏻 #OPDpathway #ProgressionPIPE

Last week we said goodbye to our Governor who has supported PIPE throughout his time at Hull 👍🏻 enjoy your well deserved retirement Tony Oliver@VeloTony and we welcome a new Governor who we look forward to introducing to the world of PIPEs! #OPDpathway

Lots of supervision this week thinking about the new people in our service & how we can work effectively with them. A keyworker also had a follow up conversation with someone who left a few months ago & is managing well in an open establishment 👍🏻 #OPDpathway #ProgressionPIPE

A new resident arrived this week, our socially creative activity gave him opportunity to meet new people. It’s been great to see individuals designing and facilitating the activities themselves, taking ownership of what goes on in their community 👍🏻 #ProgressionPIPE
