We offer support if you are an adult experiencing memory problem’s or with severe mental health problems and complex physical frailties who need assessment and support in the community setting.

Please visit your GP who can arrange for appropriate investigations, such as blood tests and ECG tests if appropriate, and then they will refer you if necessary, to the service through our single point of advice line on 0300 7900371.

Our dementia intensive support team (DIST) are available 8am until 8pm, seven days a week (including Bank Holidays) for people in crisis and needing more intensive support during that time.

We offer assessments for both memory and functional mental health problems in our assessment clinics or in the home environment (if there is a clinical need).

These are carried out by Consultant Psychiatrist, experienced Non-Medical Prescribers and Mental Health Nurses to enable diagnosis and treatment plans where appropriate. In some cases where further input is not required, the team can offer advice and signposting to other relevant agencies.

The community team hold regular Multi-Disciplinary Team meetings (MDT) where your case is discussed and reviewed with the Consultant and other relevant team members ensuring appropriate support, advice, guidance and signposting to other available services in your local area is offered.
