The ward provides assessment and treatment for women experiencing a mental health crisis who require an emergency admission.
The team at Cygnet Hospital Beckton embodies a trauma-informed approach to care. We value family and carer input, utilising a well-established carer network to provide a regular forum for updates and feedback.
We provide personalised therapy and activity programmes tailored to each person’s goals, values and changing needs, supporting mental wellbeing and helping them manage their mental health throughout their recovery journey.
We are able to provide a pathway from PICU for women who may require further intensive support within our female personality disorders service on site.
