Our Kent Prisons healthcare services are underpinned using our 'health and wellbeing' model.
There are core principles, however, how these are achieved are bespoke to the local healthcare and prison team during the model implementation:
- Patient focused with health promotion at the heart of our care
- Designing services which meet the unique needs of the prison
- The right staff, right place, right time ensuring experienced professionals are on hand to lead and support patients when needed
- A no exclusions model that ensures everyone with mental health needs is managed within the step care model
- Being highly supportive of clinical and prison staff with training, support enabling the team to work smarter and as part of an effective multi-disciplinary team
For the patient, they will experience a different type of care tailored to their needs:
- Every patient receives a comprehensive person-centred assessment within 48 hours of arrival. This includes greater use of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy empowering the patient to self-care.
- For patients with complex needs, their care is coordinated by a named coordinator who ensures a care plan is developed in conjunction with the multi-disciplinary team.
