    The objective of this piece of work was to try and create a different way of navigating through the various themes in mental health. There are a huge range of posts on mental health and related areas on the hub. Seemingly endless information, and so little time to absorb it. I know from experience, and from the learning I have undertaken and delivered on information mastery, that there is so much material available it is difficult to find the time to discover, and then read fully, what is most relevant to the work in hand. As a result I have created a diagram (below - click on it to enlarge it) and an interactive pdf (attached), which has a number of topics and subtopics links to existing hub content to help people to do exactly that. In doing this, the focus has been on including patients/users of services, avoiding medical jargon, taking a holistic view. I am really interested in everyone’s views on this. Is this a useful approach and a helpful model? Will it help you post and find what matters to you? I would love to gather people's ideas and potentially improve the model further.

    This survey from the Care Quality Commission (CQC) looks at the experiences of people receiving community mental health services. The 2020 community mental health survey received feedback from 17,601 people who received treatment for a mental health condition between 1 September 2019 and 30 November 2019. This report shows that people are consistently reporting poor experiences of NHS community mental health services, with few positive results. For example, poor experiences were reported for crisis care, accessing care, and involvement. It also found disparity in the experiences of different groups of people, especially among respondents with different diagnoses.

    Evidence highlights the intrinsic link between nurse staffing and expertise, and outcomes for service users of healthcare, and that workforce retention is linked to the clinical and organisational experiences of employees. However, this understanding is less well established in mental health. This study from Cook et al. comprises a retrospective observational study carried out on routinely collected data from a large mental healthcare provider. Two databases comprising nurse staffing levels and adverse events were modelled using latent variable methods to account for the presence of multiple underlying behaviours. The analysis reveals a strong dependence of the rate of adverse events on the location and perceived clinical demand of the wards, and a reduction in adverse events where registered nurses exceed ‘clinically required levels’. In the first study of its kind, these findings present significant implications for nursing workforce policy and present an opportunity to not only improve safety but potentially impact nurse retention.

    It is estimated that the average member of the public within the UK will experience one or maybe two traumatic situations in a lifetime – whether that be through witnessing or being involved in an accident, natural disaster, collision, medical episode or traumatic event. Those working in frontline emergency ambulance services however are exposed to distressing and traumatic events on a much more frequent basis. This paper, Published in the Journal of Paramedic Practice, discusses Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) among emergency workers, the effects it has on them and what can be done to support them.

    Anxiety is a feeling of unease, like a worry or fear, that can be mild or severe. Everyone feels anxious from time to time and it usually passes once the situation is over. It can make our heart race, we might feel sweaty, shaky or short of breath. Anxiety can also cause changes in our behaviour, such as becoming overly careful or avoiding things that trigger anxiety. When anxiety becomes a problem, our worries can be out of proportion with relatively harmless situations. It can feel more intense or overwhelming, and interfere with our everyday lives and relationships. This self help guide, produced by Southern Health and Social Care Trust, explains what anxiety is, why it occurs and how to manage anxiety.

    Mental health nurses have a crucial role in preventing medical incidents and in promoting safety culture because they provide and coordinate most of patients' care. Therefore, they are able to enhance patients' outcomes and reduce nurses' injuries. The aims of this study from S H Hamaideh in International Nursing Review were to assess the perception of mental health nurses about patients' safety culture and to detect the factors which may affect patients' safety culture at psychiatric hospitals.

    A study of police wearing body worn cameras showed a reduction in complaints, and a decrease in occurrences and crimes. Mental health staff working in inpatient settings do not routinely wear cameras. The aim of this project, published in Mental Health in Family Medicine, was to examine the feasibility of using body worn cameras in an inpatient mental health setting. The results found that both staff and patients considered that their use in an inpatient mental health setting was beneficial. Compared to the same period the year before, there was a reduction in complaints and incidents during the duration of the pilot.
