Description

This award notice concerns the procurement of a pan London Mental Health Treatment Requirement (MHTR) treatment service for women only where the Courts deem it would be appropriate to include a MHTR as part of a Community Sentence. The screening and treatment for a MHTR are commissioned by the Health & Justice team, as part of NHSE/I London's Specialised Commissioning division. The Service The provider would screen women who had been referred by either Probation, Defence or Liaison and Diversion who are potentially suitable for a MHTR. If the individual agrees, this will be shared with Probation who will include the recommendation into the Pre Sentence Report for the Judiciary for them to consider whether a MHTR could be part of any sentencing options. Where a woman is given a MHTR as part of a community order the provider would deliver a number of sessions over a specified period, determined by the court and provide psychological treatment/interventions, to address the underlying mental health issues which may be contributing towards the underlying offending issues. The Provider will work directly with probation around support which will increase compliance, as well as proactively support the woman to comply with the MHTR, and therefore reduce breaches. This service would be available to any woman appearing in any of the Magistrates' Courts or Crown Courts in London. The provider would be expected to work closely with Liaison and Diversion Services across London, as well as the Probation Service, Courts, substance misuse providers and third sector. Where a woman has additional needs, working with the Probation Service, will support her to access appropriate services to support her to address those needs.
