Appendix 2: Ideas for the whole system review

Sections 25-31 of the Mental Health (Care and Treatment) (Scotland) Act 2003 require the local authority to work with others to promote the wellbeing and social development of people who have, or have had, a mental illness, learning disability or personality disorder. What follows below are general headings, first seen in Chapter 3 'Guiding Principles', that outline various areas of life, with suggestions of actions that a local authority could promote to improve opportunities.

The headings for each set of actions may also suggest who should conduct or lead the review on that topic. So, for example, a housing group may consider the content of the first set. They will probably wish to invite people with mental illness, learning disability or personality disorder, and staff in housing related services, to contribute to the discussion.

Each action block stands alone and no one suggested action is more or less important than others though all can be seen as interdependent. Each group leading a review is also likely to develop its own actions.

In addition to considering actions that a local authority could promote, other ways to use the blocks include:

  • Using them as an opportunity for review. Take them as a starting point and then question:
    • Which of these items already exist in our local area?
    • Does availability vary for children, people of working age, and older people, or does it vary according to where you live or other circumstances?
  • Considering which services or actions are currently available or being undertaken. Highlight the blocks that show these and review after a year. Does anything else need to happen to recognise the positive work that is already happening?
  • Using them to consider financial allocations. Which actions or services could be developed within current resources or by reallocating resources?
  • As a questioning tool to examine equalities issues. Do different groups have differing viewpoints? Ask people using services, staff in community agencies and staff working in specialist services, younger and older people, representatives of ethnic minority groups, men and women, people living in different places. NHS staff working in specialist services may have a distinct perspective.
  • Using the blocks to decide on priorities. Which actions do people think would make the biggest difference?

At the end of Appendix 2 a table has been left blank for you to devise your own version of current or proposed actions and services. You will find that your discussion and review of discrete areas will bring forth new or current actions and services that contribute to the wellbeing and social development of those who have, or have had, a mental illness. These can form the basis of more detailed discussions and ongoing review.

There are a large number of suggestions made in these blocks. There may be too many to attempt at once, especially if you find many need to be undertaken. This is intended as a resource to enable you to identify and prioritise the issues that need to be addressed in your locality.

The action blocks and corresponding references (pp22-44) have also been included, as stand alone pages, in the pocket at the back of this document. It may be useful for local authorities to distribute these individual pages to the relevant areas for their ease of reference and to enable them to inform action plans.
