Welcome to our members’ event recordings
We’re committed to keeping you informed and involved in the work we do at Surrey and Borders Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. If you couldn’t attend one of our live events, you can catch up by watching recordings of our recent members’ events.
Explore key updates, hear from our experts, and stay connected with the latest developments in mental health and learning disability services.
This event featured Dr Rebecca Scarth, Eddy Davis-Ray and Dave Damon and covered their team’s view of Children and Young People’s mental health as an interaction of factors in and around a young person, and the importance of supporting both a young person wanting help and the adults and environments around that young person.
There was a look at a range of risk factors for reduced participation in education and a return to the earlier message that CYP mental health needs are the result of an interaction of factors in and around a young person.
Clinical Quality Priorities 2024
The discussion covered our clinical quality priorities for 2024 and was led by Helen Potter, Director of Quality Management and Chief Nursing Information Officer, and Lisa Musselwhite, Associate Director of Quality and Assurance. They discuss key priority areas, including strengthening support for carers, improving feedback mechanisms, enhancing flow of inpatient services, optimising care planning, reducing restrictive practices, refining risk assessments, and boosting physical health checks.
Each priority area is accompanied by progress updates, initiatives, and challenges, such as increased identification and support for carers, ongoing efforts to elicit feedback effectively, partnerships to streamline discharge processes, policy development to tackle sexual safety concerns, and the implementation of new risk formulation processes and physical health templates.
A capacity audience of members (including staff), Governors, stakeholders and members of the public gathered on 9 October 2024 for our annual Members’ Day, which is effectively our annual general meeting.
There were marketplace stalls representing key aspects of the work of our Trust and some of our partners, and high-quality presentations on our work with carers, Neurodevelopmental disorders and Neurodivergence in adults, and our groundbreaking work on suicide prevention.
