Mental Health Rehabilitation and Recovery

Therapeutic support within our mental health rehabilitation and recovery services is provided by a specialist multi-disciplinary team who apply our bespoke care model and digital service user management system, myPath.

myPath has a wide range of functions, but the key deliverable is that it keeps the individual at the centre of all avenues and enables high quality and sustainable care to be delivered in a meaningful and realistic way.

For each individual we can:

• Deliver transparent care
• Offer bespoke care pathways
• Monitor engagement levels
• Evidence tangible outcomes
• Predict discharge readiness

In applying myPath, the team around the individual are able to be proactive in their approach and use myPath to positively combine risk management and longer-term rehabilitation and recovery.

This enables each individual to live their life as independently as possible with the appropriate support, guidance and assistance.
