North Transitional Discharge Team – North Inpatients (INT024)

The North Transitional Discharge Team helps service users and carers to overcome barriers to discharge from hospital. Some examples of the things we can help with are:

• Housing
• Benefits
• Supported accommodation
• Debt advice
• Practical issues such as purchasing furniture and helping with moving house
• Support to manage the transition back to the community from hospital

The North Transitional Discharge Team are a group of experienced mental health nurses who have developed working relationships with social care, housing services and other external organisations that work to support service users to live in the community.

Who is the service for?
