  • Slimlined Referral Process

YOT CPNs
  • 1st Point of Contact for majority of young
    offenders with mental health needs
  • Workers often lone nurses isolated
  • Support forums that are in place are run by the
    workers themselves in local areas with no
    strategic oversight or support

15
YOT CPNs
  • YOT mental health practitioners need access to
    peer support and development opportunities as
    well as the opportunity to share good practice.
    An existing group, the London CAMHS YOT workers
    forum, provides a useful starting point for these
    activities, but needs high level support (eg by
    CSIP and the London YJB), in order that it can
    hold regular, well attended meetings at a central
    venue and so that workers will be encouraged by
    managers to attend.
  • Strengthening the forum will require
  • -Written terms of reference, circulated to all
    YOT and CAMHS managers.
  • -An annual calendar of meetings and events and a
    programme of speakers/external input.
  • -A quarterly report/newsletter giving the
    outcomes of its meetings, sent both to the
    provider Trusts and to the YOT managers.
  • CSIP in conjunction with the London CAMHS
    Partnership chairs should consider creating a
    regional specialist CAMHS group which focuses on
    adolescent forensic mental health and the young
    offender client group.
  • London CAMHS YOT workers need a training
    programme that will help them share good
    practice, offer peer support and ensure they are
    offering the most effective packages to young
    people. This training should be based on a
    training needs analysis and a useful model would
    be facilitated action learning sets.
