Mental health problems can affect anyone at any time in their life, and if you or someone you know or care for is experiencing mental health issues, the ·¬ÇÑÊÓƵapp Mental Health teams are here to offer support and help.
We support people who have or think they may have mental health problems, such as depression, phobias, anxiety disorders or schizophrenia.
Within ·¬ÇÑÊÓƵapp Council Social Work Department the Mental Health team offer assessment and care management for people experiencing mental health difficulties. This includes undertaking a Personal Outcomes Plan which identifies the specific needs of individuals who are experiencing severe or enduring mental health illness and this is done in partnership with health colleagues.
Mental Health Officers offer a variety of duties under appropriate mental health legislation, including specialist assessments under the Mental Health (Care & Treatment) (Scotland) Act 2003 and the Adults with Incapacity (Scotland) Act 2000.
