Opening Doors
We are campaigning to open to the doors to mental health services, and to ensure they are good quality. It is essential that treatments and services are available, accessible and delivered to high standards.
What issues are we tackling?
- GP practices: reasonable adjustments - see Rethink's new toolkit for GPs about making practices more accessible.
- NHS review and constitution - find out what is promised in the new NHS constitution and NHS review report - and have your say!
- Social Care consultation - find out what the Government is proposing for the future of care and support services - and have your say!
- Health and Social Care Bill - The Mental Health Act Commission (MHAC) is being abolished. Find out what Rethink is doing to ensure that mental health remains a priority within the new Commission which will be responsible for regulating health and social care.
- Prescription Charges - A fair deal for mental health? We want your views!
- Physical health inequalities- people with severe mental illness are at a greater risk of physical illness than the rest of the population.
- NICE guidelines- Many thanks to those of you who filled in our Your Treatment, Your Choice survey. The results from this will be used to campaign for the best treatments to be made available.
