“…undoubtedly enter the service, doubts were expressed about how much money actually arrived at its intended destination 28 and there were criticisms that the extra money was used to pay for new managers rather than to recruit more clinicians. 29 The internal organisation of both Tier 2/3 CAMHS clinics and Tier 4 in-patient units reflected the philosophy of the child guidance clinics with the young person being treated by a team, usually a psychiatrist, a psychologist or psychotherapist, very often a social worker and sometimes a family therapist. However, the same problems that existed in the child guidance clinics also persisted, most notably a lack of provision in many areas for 16-18 year olds who were considered too old for CAMHS but too young for adult services.…”

“…31 The increase in the number of referrals was not matched by an increase in the number of staff so that in some areas it was becoming difficult to provide long-term psychotherapy. Clinicians were increasingly expected to "be accountable to external bodies rather than the patient" 32 which resulted in pressure on Tier 3 services to provide drugs rather than therapy, despite the fact that there were no long-term studies on the side-effects of psychiatric medication on under-eighteens. Thus although the same tiers existed throughout the country, they did not provide the same types of treatment, and there was no unified approach as to how the tiers were administered.…”

“…The paper concludes with calls for 'specific research' in a number of areas-not least the experience of patients in these different forms of institutions. 27 disability now and in the past; they can evidence the challenges and the positive and negative responses to them. All of these help us tell a longer-term story and even highlight some of those issues such as acceptance and belonging that remain the same in some cases-even if the dominant paradigm of care has changed.…”

University engagement with mental health services has traditionally been informed by the vocational and pedagogical links between the two sectors. However, a growth in the interest in public history and in the history of mental healthcare has offered new opportunities for those in the humanities to engage new audiences and to challenge perceptions about care in the past. The introduction of the ‘impact agenda’ and related funding streams has further encouraged academics to contribute to historical debates, and to those concerning current services. One such example of this is the Arts and Humanities Research Council funded Heritage and Stigma project at the University of Huddersfield, which was conceived to support mental health and learning disability charities in the exploration and dissemination of their own histories. Using this project as a case study, this paper will draw on primary source material to reflect on the opportunities and challenges of working in partnership with such groups. In particular, it will consider the need to address issues of stigma and exclusion in tandem with a critical understanding of the moves to ‘community care’ instigated by landmark legislation in the form of the 1959 Mental Health Act. Overall, it provides evidence of an inclusive, coproductive model of design and highlights the positive contribution to communicating mental health made by those based in the humanities.

Background Mental health crisis requiring emergency access to psychiatric service can occur at any time. Psychiatric Emergency Service (PES) is described as one that provides an immediate response to an individual in crisis within the first 24 hours. Presently, several PESs are available in the United Kingdom (UK) with the aim of providing prompt and effective assessment, management and in some cases treatment and/or referral. Therefore, this study aims to provide a detailed narrative literature review of Psychiatric Emergency Service (PES) currently available in the UK Method Electronic search of five key databases (MEDLINE, PsychINFO, EMBASE, AMED and PUBMED) was conducted. Studies were included if it described a service that provides immediate response in mental health crisis within the first 24 hours. Excluded studies did not describe a PES, non-English, and were not conducted in UK. Results Nine PESs were found. Amongst the 9 services, more papers described crisis resolution home treatment. Majority of the papers reported services within England than other countries within the UK. Conclusion All forms of PES are beneficial, particularly to mental health service users, but not without some shortcomings. There is a need to continue carrying out methodological research that evaluate impact, cost-effectiveness as well as identify methods of optimising the beneficial outcomes of all models of PES. This may help inform researchers, policy makers and commissioners, service users and carers, service providers and many more on how to ensure current and future PES meet the needs as well as aid recovery during crisis.
