• Referrals and transitions: We prioritise timely responses, conducting assessments within the prison and providing a prompt decision on the most appropriate pathway.
• Comprehensive Care Planning: Our assessment program is built around the individual. We utilise cognitive and neurological insights alongside therapeutic input to create a holistic understanding of their strengths and needs.
