Seeing more and more of this attitude from police at the moment trying to negotiate police support in MHAAs- “we won’t attend just IN CASE something happens, WHEN something happens call 999 and we will attend” when something happens it is too late

This is hugely concerning. By the very nature of their work, AMHPs often have to go into situations of heightened risk. No AMHP should ever be alone in a community setting. Every local authority has a responsibility to ensure this.

Sarah gave us a whistle stop tour on Tuesday - she is absolutely brilliant 🤩
*New blog* in which Sarah Redmond dives into an area of AMHP practice we haven't really spoken about yet on The Critical AMHP - namely, MHA assessments with children and young people. Remember your responses to any blogs welcome here or by email, thanks.

2014 I started a sociology BA degree because I was passionate about social justice. 2023 I’ve been a MH social worker for 4 years and an AMHP for almost a year. Today I attended my 3rd graduation ceremony for my PG Cert in mental health practice (AMHP). proud. of. myself. ❤️

My mum has rheumatoid arthritis this would be perfect for her. Easy to call it laziness when you’re able.

Isn’t there a point where perpetuating a binary between mental and physical health becomes problematic, *especially* in eating disorders?
Eating disorders are a mental illness- not a physical one. You do not have to be underweight to have an eating disorder.
