New assessments are normally slotted into the ward rounds (Inpatients) and into prearranged out-patient clinics if the new assessments are generated from the referral system. On rare occasions, assessments are requested as an emergency from the wings or segregation unit. Whilst there is flexibility in allocation of individual responsibilities, the overarching model is one of integrated working across the mental health multidisciplinary teams.


This post-holder will have his or her base at HMP Guys Marsh, HMP Portland and HMP The Verne for the allocated PAs, where the mental health service comprises a full multidisciplinary team, including mental health practitioners, occupational therapists, Support Time and Recovery workers, and a psychology team, supported by administration and a service manager.
