  • ALL PROVIDERS MUST CONTINUALLY MONITOR FOR VARIATIONS IN RISK: THIS IS A NON-NEGOTIABLE AND WE EXPECT ANY VARIATION IN RISK IE SUICIDALITY/SELF HARM TO BE ACTIONED IMMEDIATELY I.E., PATIENT POLITELY INFORMED OF UNSUITABILITY, DISCHARGED AND RECOMMENDED CRISIS/INTENSIVE SERVICES, THAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR RESEARCHING IN ADVANCE, SEE OUR “In Crisis?” PAGE. PROCEED ALSO TO RELAY TO POINTS OF CONTACT; SUPERVISOR, COURSE TUTOR, MYPROTHERAPIES SENIOR TEAM.

  • ANY SAFEGUARDING CONCERNS OUGHT TO BE RELAYED TO POINTS OF CONTACT; SUPERVISOR, COURSE TUTOR, MYPROTHERAPIES SENIOR TEAM.

  • IF, WITH REGARDS TO RISK OR SAFEGUARDING THERE IS THREAT OF IMMEDIATE HARM, CONTACT EMERGENCY SERVICES IMMEDIATELY AND DOCUMENT IN YOUR NOTES.

  • E.g., Someone has purchased materials to commit suicide (rope, pharmaceuticals etc.,) and has a thought out plan to follow through.

  • E.g., Someone vulnerable is under direct threat of physical harm, for instance a physically violent attacker is trying to enter the home.

  • Again, while these situations seem extreme, they emphasize the importance of screening for risk in the free consultation.

  • Equally, do bare in mind that while it is your job to action anything you have been told, it is not your responsibility to action/prevent things you are not aware of, and there are multiple, complex factors that can impact people’s safety.
