How our service can help you
Psychosis Community Service (North West) provides care for adults, aged
18-65, who have a psychotic illness. This involves distorted perceptions
of reality - thinking, feeling, hearing and seeing - often with symptoms
of hallucinations and delusions.
We are available to people who live in the London Borough of Southwark
(North West) who already receive care and treatment for mental illness
from one of our other therapy services.
People eligible for our service must be on the Care Programme Approach
(CPA). The CPA is for patients who need to see several people or
organisations for their mental health care and treatment.
We help people to continue with the improvements they have made with
their illness. We teach people the skills they need to live
independently in their community.
We work with a team of health and social care professionals including
nurses, doctors, social workers, psychologists and benefits workers. We
also work closely with the patients, their carers and GPs, local day
care centres and housing associations as required.
