To mark Cheshire West’s 10th anniversary, we’ve updated our guidance: “Understanding when someone is deprived of their liberty” by The Law Society lawsociety.org.uk/topics/private…
bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-… This is hugely concerning. By the very nature of their work, AMHPs often have to go into situations of heightened risk. No AMHP should ever be alone in a community setting. Every local authority has a responsibility to ensure this.

@Sectioned_ I have the privilege of such titles & the experience & the last time I was invited into a little room. I point out that the #AMHP was independent & couldn’t be instructed & that it was actually an offence to obstruct & interfere with the #GrumpyAMHP *Did the trick 😉👍

As a carer for my mum with a rare form of YOD I find this advert hard.. she’s not dead at all.. she’s different.. and that’s hard but she is enjoying her life and finds value in it.. imagine how u would feel watching this when u have just been diagnosed..it’s awful!!
We'll be there for you. Again, and again, and again 💙
Great day great to have the support of @wmadass for BIA update training today, together with doctors, just over 300 people, huge thanks to @NeilAllen39 too
To mark Cheshire West’s 10th anniversary, we’ve updated our guidance: “Understanding when someone is deprived of their liberty” by The Law Society lawsociety.org.uk/topics/private…
@dlgcochrane When you know an #AMHP hasn't been asked to contribute (or proofread) guidance aimed at AMHPs.
It’s been a very long ten days. My dad fell on 24th Feb and in his words ‘has batted on’ until 12.20 today when he finally gave in. He was 96 and independent till the end. He will leave a huge, dignified hole.
This is a very brave thing to write and the choice to be anonymous does nothing to diminish that courage.

All MH professionals should read this, and have a strong word with themselves as soon as they start to feel defensive. This is real, this is happening to some degree in every service, and we turn a blind eye because a discharge or 'gatekeeping' is supposedly a success
I recently had a paper published by the Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing, about my experiences of harm in mental health services; how this caused me to self-discharge; and my life now as a "service-avoider". It's available here: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jp…
I used to be brought to this arts centre by a mental health nurse when very unwell with anorexia. Now I am here to eat, drink, socialise, see a film. Change is possible.

@MaskedAMHP I'm taking a step this year to test out an "Intro to the MHA 83 and role of an AMHP" course within my authority to try and upskilled our non AMHP workforce around what we do, but most importantly what we don't do.
Sometimes, AMHPs even have the time to fully consider alternatives, delay decisions to detain up to 14 days (usually), and we don't have to detain someone just because there are 2 valid med recs. The importance of the AMHP role can never be underestimated. (2/2)
