Yes, this is just more " programs for assertive community treatment " or PACT.

Sometimes it's called ACT, assertive community treatment.

It's horrible, no matter what you call it. It's not about true community

services or self-determination, or autonomy. It's all about pushing drugs. These

laws were written by NAMI and its drug company sponsors.

The curtailing of rights is what this is all about.

I recommend everyone look over those rules

very closely. With no biological marker for

mental illness and the treatments causing

much of the violence and dangers this does

nothing to solve any real problems but is very

much like the deterioration of liberties experienced

by the mentally ill in 1930's-40's Nazi Germany.

The first to be euthanized were the mentally ill

even before any of the death camps were up and

running.

As usual the reduction of personal rights is for

Safer Patients Mean Safer Public - Greater Focus On Protection, UK

Main Category: Public Health News

Article Date: 16 Sep 2006 - 0:00am (PDT)

| email this article | printer friendly | view or write opinions |

An initiative to protect mental health patients from the risk of

hurting themselves or other people was announced today by the

Department of Health. A Risk Management Programme has been set up to

improve the way that professionals assess risk, ensure that lessons

are learnt from past incidents and make sure that information is

shared between agencies to help prevent any future incidents.

Although the majority of people with mental health problems pose no

danger to themselves or other people, there is a small minority who

are a risk and need intensive support, usually to protect

themselves. Every year approximately 55-60 homicides are committed

by mental health patients and 1,000 people who have been in contact

with mental health services commit suicide. The new amending Mental

Health Bill will introduce supervised treatment in the community to

ensure that patients who have been discharged from compulsory

treatment in hospital continue to comply with treatment. This will

benefit patients and improve public safety.

Also published today by the Department of Health was an independent

review of homicides committed by people with severe mental illness,

carried out by Professor Tony Maden of Imperial College London. It

examines what went wrong in each individual case and makes

recommendations to prevent further tragedies.

The Department also announced today that it was undertaking a review

of its wider Care Programme Approach, which is used by professionals

to assess, plan, coordinate and review the care of patients. This

review will look at how community care can better target patients

with the highest needs, such as parents with a severe mental illness

or those who have a drug problem. The review will also aim to

streamline the current cumbersome care planning process, and give

patients more control over their care and their choice of treatment.

Rosie Winterton said:

" Some people with severe mental health problems can pose a danger to

themselves. A smaller number can pose a danger to the public. We are

committed to minimising this danger and helping patients regain

their independence.

" We need to be better at spotting the signs of danger, we need to

improve the way agencies work together and we need to provide care

that will help patients recover and regain their independence.

" I am delighted to announce two programmes of work. Firstly, we will

be reviewing the way professionals assess and manage the risk that a

patient can pose. Secondly, we will be reviewing the wider way in

which professionals assess, plan and co-ordinate the care of

patients. Taken together, they will allow professionals to give

patients the appropriate, safe and personalised care that they need

to get better.

" These reviews will also complement the new Mental Health Bill and

together will ensure that people who need treatment - sometimes to

protect others but more often to protect themselves - will get the

right treatment at the right time. "

Background

The Department of Health has commissioned the Care Services

Improvement Partnership (CSIP) to undertake a two-pronged review.

Risk Management Programme

The Risk Management Programme has already commissioned research into

past incidents to improve the current evidence base. The programme

is now:

(a) working on a national evidence framework for assessing and

managing risk

( developing guidance on information sharing between agencies

about high-risk patients and

© looking at the ways in which training of professionals can be

improved.

This programme of work is linked to the proposal to introduce

supervised community treatment for people with mental health

problems as part of the review of the Mental Health Act 1983.

Care Programme Approach

Currently, when a patient is referred for mental health treatment,

they receive a care plan that identifies their treatment needs, the

relevant organisations involved in providing this care, the person

who will coordinate this care and when the care plan should be

reviewed. This is known as the Care Programme Approach (CPA).

Although this system has improved treatment since it was introduced

ten years ago, the Government believes that more needs to be done to

provide patients with greater control and care tailored to their

individual needs. We also believe that the current system is too

bureaucratic and that agencies can improve the way they work

together.

Current proposals to review the system include:

(a) Strengthening the role of the care coordinator and improving

information sharing between health, social care and criminal justice

agencies

( Reviewing the training available to care coordinators and seeing

if this can be improved

© Investigating ways red tape can be cut

(d) Refocusing care planning so that patients are given more

information, a greater say in shaping their treatment and so more is

done to help them regain their independence

We intend to hold a public consultation of the Care Programme

Approach later this year.

2. The Labour Party 2005 manifesto said:

" We shall provide safeguards for the few people with long-term

mental health problems who need compulsory treatment coupled with

appropriate protection for the public. We shall also strengthen the

system for protecting the public from offenders who have served

their sentence but may still pose a threat because they have a

serious psychopathic disorder. "

I kow a gal in Wisconsin who is a real fire brand and freedom

fighter. She said she had a lawsuit that would really hurt the

local government and then she was court ordered to an ACT

program.

Now they come by and test her blood for the proper amount

of psych drugs and force her to attend mental health meetings.

She cannot get out now as they will throw her out of her

government housing if she weens herself off the drugs.

This person is TRAPPED by her own government and would

literally have to run away and would need people ready to help

her withdraw and give her a place to live until she could get on

her feet. The police would probably be looking for her.

Yes, this is just more " programs for assertive community treatment " or PACT.

Sometimes it's called ACT, assertive community treatment.

It's horrible, no matter what you call it. It's not about true community

services or self-determination, or autonomy. It's all about pushing drugs. These

laws were written by NAMI and its drug company sponsors.

benefit patients and improve public safety. "

More B.S. from politicians who haven't got a clue as to

the 'disinhibition syndrome' caused by the drugs. This is just going

to mean forced drug 'therapy.'More erroding of the rights of the

mentally ill.

....the treatment is a big part of the problem.

I kow a gal in Wisconsin who is a real fire brand and freedom

fighter. She said she had a lawsuit that would really hurt the

local government and then she was court ordered to an ACT

program.

Now they come by and test her blood for the proper amount

of psych drugs and force her to attend mental health meetings.

She cannot get out now as they will throw her out of her

government housing if she weens herself off the drugs.

This person is TRAPPED by her own government and would

literally have to run away and would need people ready to help

her withdraw and give her a place to live until she could get on

her feet. The police would probably be looking for her.

Yes, this is just more " programs for assertive community treatment " or PACT.

Sometimes it's called ACT, assertive community treatment.

It's horrible, no matter what you call it. It's not about true community

services or self-determination, or autonomy. It's all about pushing drugs. These

laws were written by NAMI and its drug company sponsors.
