Our service is a new element of the CORE community mental health programme in Bradford. The service exists to support people in a community setting who are experiencing serious mental illness and, who cannot currently access statutory services or are transitioning between statutory and community support. Other community based Voluntary and Community led services are available for people experiencing lower level mental ill health.
CORE (VCS) Service Referral Criteria
The criteria outlined applies to individuals with severe mental health conditions such as psychosis or eating disorders, as well as those without a formal diagnosis but experiencing significant emotional distress affecting their quality of life. Geographic limitations dictate that services are available only within specific Primary Care Network areas. The service caters to individuals aged 16 and above but excludes those already accessing secondary mental health services, deemed an immediate risk to themselves or others, or with substance/alcohol issues posing a risk or hindering service use. Referrals unable to be accepted are redirected to alternative services as needed.
