Home Treatment Team – Lambeth
Overview
Home Treatment (Lambeth) provides a service for people, aged 18-65, with severe mental illness who would benefit from assessment and treatment at home as an alternative to Hospital. We provide care for people who live in the London Borough of Lambeth.
We provide short-term treatment for people who are having a mental health crisis. Wherever possible, we avoid the need for the hospital admission.
Our service brings together different professional health and social care professionals, including nurses, social workers and psychiatrists. We also work closely with the patient, their carers, GP, local daycare centre and housing provider as required.
