New NICE Guidance: Mental health of adults in contact with the criminal justice system (NG66).
Evidence-based recommendations on assessing, diagnosing and managing
mental health problems for adults who are in contact with the criminal
justice system.
The final guidance says that people who are diagnosed
with a mental health problem within the criminal justice system should
receive annual checks, and staff should be trained to spot the warning
signs.
This Resource has been developed by the Library and showcases NICE Guidance, Guidance under Development, Future Guidelines and NICE Pathways that are relevant to the work of the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust. It is updated daily with News from NICE, videos relating to the work of NICE. New guidance is added as soon as it is released.
What is NICE?
NICE guidance helps health and social care professionals deliver the best possible care based on the best available evidence. This guidance supports healthcare professionals and others to make sure that the care they provide is of the best possible quality and offers the best value for money. The guidance is for the NHS, local authorities, charities, and anyone with a responsibility for commissioning or providing healthcare, public health or social care services. We also support these groups in putting our guidance into practice.
