Preventative and Reactive Strategies.

Today, the RRN launched our latest set of resources, 'How I should be cared for in a mental health hospital’ , commissioned by NHS England.

Recognising that going into hospital can be worrying and unsettling for both the person going into hospital and for their family and loved ones, the new resources let people know what to expect and what they can do if things don’t seem right.

The resources include information on the person’s rights and what to expect when in hospital, along with an evaluation tool to help people check if they are getting good care. You can view and download the resources at https://restraintreductionnetwork.org/resources/inpatient-resource-toolkit/

The 'How I should be cared for in a mental health hospital’ toolkit was written, edited and designed by people with experience of being in hospital themselves.
