Rehabilitation will be provided in a therapeutic setting, with a level of security matched to individual needs. The aim of the treatment, rehabilitation and re-socialisation programme will be to prepare service users for transfer to an environment of lesser security, or for a life in the community.
Cygnet Maple House will have a substantive multi-disciplinary team (MDT) comprising of a hospital manager, clinical manager, consultant psychiatrist, specialty doctor, psychologist, assistant psychologist, occupational therapist, therapy co-ordinator and nursing and support workers. The team will work closely with the local community, including dieticians and primary care.
With a focus on interpersonal relationships, the team will use individual formulation to deliver a personalised and integrated combination of psychotherapeutic and pharmacological interventions. These can include:
- Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT)
- Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
- Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT)
- Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR)
- Schema Focused Therapy (SFT)
Lee Hammon, Cygnet’s Chief Commercial Officer, said: “We are delighted to be expanding our highly specialised services portfolio in the East Midlands region, and opening our first service in Nottinghamshire dedicated to women with a personality disorder. For many this will mean that a specialist service can be offered closer to home, friends and family and reduce the need for out of area placements.”
