Ensure that development and roll-out of DIALOG + is maintained and audited not just for the individual, but also in terms of the impact for families and carers. In this way, the impact of a very important step change in risk and care planning can be understood and managed.

Ensure that discussion continues to be undertaken with all parties, including Police, to support access to care for people with acute mental health problems presenting out of hours. This might be undertaken through development of a second bed in the S136 Suite, or perhaps by other means, to improve quality and safety for individuals in crisis who otherwise may wait much longer than is necessary.
