The ADAPT Service

The Multi-disciplinary team (MDT) for ADAPT consists of psychiatrists, social workers, occupational therapists, clinical psychologists, psychiatric nurses, employment advisors, support worker staff and lived experience practitioners with the support of administrative roles.

Following Triage within the Primary Care Plus (PCP) within the relevant area, those service users considered to need input from ADAPT will be booked into an Assessment Clinic. This assessment should take place within ten working days by an experienced clinician with the appropriate skill set and competency to ensure good quality formulation and care planning.

Prior to assessment by ADAPT, service users will be asked to fill out a screening form gathering basic demographic and other data (carers / NOK detail, smoking status etc.). Assessment clinics will be scheduled on two days a week. Assessment slots will last for up to 90 minutes. All assessments will be presented in the post assessment team meeting where formulation, diagnosis, care needs in line with the Care Act (2015), specialist intervention and fast track job retention will be discussed and agreed.

Internal referrals will be made via the internal Oxleas referral email address from wards, HTT, DTT and will also be discussed and allocated within these MDT meetings.
