Haringey Joint Health and Social Care Mental Health Strategy 2005-2008

National context

The Haringey Joint Health and Social Care Mental Health Strategy has been developed in the context of national policy relating to:

• modernising mental health services (National Service Framework, Policy and Implementation Guidance)
• improving ethnic minority patient experience (Delivering Race Equality)
• reducing stigma associated with mental illness (From Here to Equality)
• promotion of social inclusion and adoption of a recovery model for mental health (Mental Health and Social Exclusion report)
• changing role of adult social care with greater emphasis on maintaining independence and preventing problems (Independence, Well-being and Choice).

Local context and partnership working

This strategy is set within the overall context of the Haringey Strategic Partnership (HSP). The Haringey Community Strategy (2007 – 2016) sets out six priority areas that have been signed up to by partner agencies in the borough.

1. People at the heart of change
2. An environmentally sustainable future
3. Economic vitality and prosperity shared by all
4. Safer for all
5. Healthier people with a better quality of life
6. People and customer focused

Key statutory partners within the mental health agenda in Haringey are:

• Housing
• Supporting People
• Regeneration and New Deal for Communities
• Metropolitan Police
• Probation Service
• Drug and Alcohol Action Team
• Welfare to Work
• Children’s Services
• Social Care Services for Adults and Children

Key aims

• To make the values and principles of a proposed model of care for primary and secondary mental health services for Haringey explicit
• To clarify a number of priorities for mental health services across a complicated system to achieve the vision for services in Haringey
• To provide outline strategic frameworks for mental health services for older people, children and adolescents as a basis for further work by the relevant partnerships to foster increased linkages across the theme boards for the Haringey Strategic Partnership to develop cross over work at both a strategic level and  in frontline services
• To use the partnerships to act as an agent for change and to redress inequalities which contribute to poor mental health, in particular for high risk groups.
