Forensic mental health services
The adult mental health forensic service provides psychiatric care for mentally disordered offenders, as well as for individuals whose mental health problems and challenging behaviour require medium and low secure accommodation. Personal and community safety is a prime concern.
- Dalesway provides low secure accommodation for men (Newtondale and Kirkdale)
- Leystone provides low secure accommodation for male (Fulmar) and female (Brambling) service users
- Adderstone provides medium secure accommodation for men (Swift and Mandarin)
- Whinstone also provides medium secure accommodation for men (Nightingale and Linnet) and women (Bluebell and Rose)
The forensic mental health service team includes a wide range of professionals who provide direct patient care or are actively involved in supporting this care.
Our multi-disciplinary team works closely with individual service users, their carers and families to develop bespoke packages of care which are provided in a positive, nonjudgemental and socially inclusive manner.
Learning disability forensic services
The learning disability forensic service is designed to support individuals who have been diagnosed with learning disability and challenging behaviours. This can include individuals who have a history of offending and mental health problems.
- Blakey provides low secure accommodation for men (Harrier, Hawk, Kestrel, Kite, Eagle and Osprey)
- Rudland provides low secure accommodation for men (Robin, Kingfisher and Heron) and women (Thistle, Ivy and Clover)
With the right level of specialist support many of the people who use our services are able to remain in the community and our aim is to minimise the time they need to spend in Roseberry Park.
Our inpatient team adopts a holistic approach to care, based on the needs of the individual. They offer a broad range of positive therapeutic treatments and individualised programmes of occupational, domestic and leisure pursuits that help create a supportive community network around the individual.
Physical health and the health centre
It is important that that our service users have equal access to routine physical health care services. This includes an annual health check, individual support for those who need to attend a general hospital and information on their medical
condition.
Ridgeway has a dedicated physical health care suite and speciality physicians and general nurses ensure that inpatients receive the physical health care they need. They are supported by other professionals including dentists, physiotherapists, dieticians, opticians, podiatrists and speech and language therapists.
