Abstract

Drawing on targeted, exploratory interviews with a small number of staff and detainees conducted in February 2017, this report sets out a series of common practices and issues relating to services access and quality of mental health service provision, including ACDT plans in Morton Hall IRC. While many of the findings are negative, including high levels of distress among detainees, and uncertainty among staff of how to manage mental health problems among the detained community, the report also identifies some areas of good practice and support. It offers suggestions for improved sign-posting to available services, while identifying additional areas of possible development.
