Recommendation
In order to achieve this shift towards community-based care, every area should have a community service for children in crisis which is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. A clear map is needed of where current gaps in this provision are and a plan should be in place to ensure these services are available in every area. This should include 24/7 all age liaison psychiatry in hospitals, crisis services in the community, and 24/7 crisis support teams in all areas. These should have specialist expertise in preventing admissions and supporting children and young people with autism, a learning disability or both.
