Section 4 of 7 · Psychological and family interventions

The team's own answers, with the peer evaluator's alongside where they differ.

4.2 Families in contact with the service are offered family intervention.

Team's answer

Yes, routinely

"Offered at the second family contact; see the pathway document."

📎 FI-pathway-v3.pdf

Evaluator's answer

Partly

"Offer recorded in 9 of the 20 records audited. The pathway is sound; recording and follow-through are not consistent."

4.3 Cognitive behavioural therapy for psychosis (CBTp) is offered to everyone on the caseload.

Team's answer

Yes, routinely

Evaluator

Agrees

"Offer recorded in 18 of 20."

Session raised as an alarm by the evaluator

"Two-week starts have fallen from 63% to 49% over two quarters while the caseload grew by a quarter. Recommend escalating to the locality lead before the full report."

    • Seen in 5 of the 6 teams analysed separately.
    • Readmissions linked from the patient record by pseudonymised identifier; no names are held in SOMAT.
  • Perinatal Pathway Audit · Perinatal Mental Health 2026

    • Found together, which does not show that one causes the other.

    Analyst's note: A candidate for the next round: record why a meeting was not held, so the two groups can be compared fairly.
