Mental Health Recovery

A review of current care and support provision available to people living with mental ill health in Rotherham indicates that there is limited choice, and the current provision does not promote mental health recovery or offer support to people to transition to supported or independent living. The Council is seeking to co-produce a new mental health community service model which reflects the mental health recovery model, personalised social care with increased choice and control for people living with mental ill-health. The model will follow the guiding principles of the mental health recovery framework which promotes the identification of the strengths of an individual, builds their resilience enabling them to regain control and supports their recovery towards leading a life meaningful to them after experiencing a serious mental illness.
