Outcome tools
WEMWBS CORE
WEMWBS is an outcome tool which our organisation uses to measure the enhance wellbeing of our service users across our Community services.
Core is an outcome tool used by our Psychological services to monitor the progress of service users engaging with therapeutic interventions.
All people accessing our services (excluding Advocacy) are
assigned a Wellbeing worker who will undertake an initial assessment regular reviews with all service users.
Independent AdvocacyWe specialise in Independent Mental Health Advocacy (IMHA) in Rochdale and BuryGeneric mental health advocacy for people on CPA in Rochdale and BuryIndependent Mental Capacity Advocacy (IMCA) – Rochdale only
Aims and objectivesThe aim of independent advocacy in all its forms is to ensure that people are not deprived of their rights through lack of information, lack of resources or lack of someone to speak up for them.
We aim to empower people by supporting them to express their views and concerns, to access information and services, to defend their rights and to explore their choices and options. We aim to promote self advocacy through all of our work.
Referrals are made direct to the Advocacy service
The Open Mind Team
The Open Mind Service is the gateway to our organisation (Non-advocacy).
Access routes across the boroughEach person is assigned their own Wellbeing worker Tailored to meet the needs of that person. Plans are reviewed with the individual periodically.
Referrals to the Open Mind Team can be made through professionals, partner agencies or by the person themselves. Open Mind outcomes are measured using WEMWBS during the initial assessment and throughout regular review meetings.
This helps to measure the progress of the person and ensure that they are happy with their development whilst engaging with Rochdale and District Mind’s services.

Mental Capacity Act 2005
The Role of the Independent Mental Capacity Advocate (IMCA)
• The Mental capacity Act 2005 was implemented in 2007. It created the role of the Independent Mental Capacity Advocate (IMCA)
• The aim of the IMCA service is to provide independent safeguards for people who lack capacity to make certain important decisions
• The IMCA safeguard will provide the person with someone who is on their side so that there is never a closed relationship between the decision maker and the person who lacks capacity. (1-287MCA)
Eligibility1. Does the person have an impairment that could affect their
capacity?
2. Does this mean that the person is unable to make a specific decision when they need to?
3. The responsibility for determining the mental capacity of the person is that of the decision maker, not the IMCA (Mental Capacity Act 2005)
4. Where appropriate the IMCA can challenge the outcome of the capacity test.
“Appropriate family or close friends”
• “Willing”
They want to be consulted• “Able”
They are physically able to be consulted• “Acting in best interests”
Unless there is evidence of behaviour to show otherwise. Not simply because they disagree with the decision
(MCA COP 10.79)
There are only 4 types of decisions that an IMCA can be involved in. These come under two categories…..
Mandatory: • Serious medical treatment• Long term change in residence
Discretionary:• Adult protection cases• Care reviews
What types of serious medical treatment decisions?
It is impossible to define a set of standards that serious medical treatment must adhere to in order to fall into the category, but a few examples are listed below;
• Chemotherapy and surgery for cancer• Electro-convulsive therapy• Therapeutic sterilisation• Major amputations• Termination of pregnancy. (MCA Code of Practice)
Involving IMCA’s in adult protection cases
• It is alleged that the person is or has been abused or neglected by another person.
• It is alleged that the person is abusing or has abused another person.
• In adult protection cases, access to IMCA’s is not restricted. People who lack capacity who do have family and friends are still entitled to have IMCA support.
What does the IMCA do?• Meet, support and represent the person in the decision
making process.• Ascertain the person’s past and present wishes, feelings,
values and beliefs where possible.• Evaluate information, including the right to access and
copy relevant records and assessments • Ascertaining what alternative courses of action are
available in relation to the person.• Obtaining a further medical opinion where treatment is
proposed and the advocate thinks that one should be obtained.
• Consult with others involved in the person’s life. (Mental Capacity Act 2005)
Continued…
• Ensure the basic principles and best interest checklist in the Mental Capacity Act are being followed.
• Prepare a report which the “decision maker” must consider when making the decision.
• Challenge the decision on behalf of the person where necessary.
• Resolve disputes locally as far as possible before making use of statutory procedures.
• In certain cases the IMCA may want to apply to the Court of Protection.
( Mental Capacity Act 2005)
What does the IMCA not do:
• We don’t assess capacity (but if we don’t agree with an assessment we can challenge).
• Get involved in purely financial decisions, unless they are part of safeguarding measures.
• Do not make decisions but do feed into the decision making process.
Please note:
The IMCA service you use is the one based where the person is geographically located at the time of the referral.
Except…….in DoLS cases.
Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS)
• The Deprivation of Liberty Safeguards (DoLS) are part of the Mental Capacity Act 2005.
• They aim to make sure that people in care homes, hospitals and supported living are looked after in a way that does not inappropriately restrict their freedom.
(Alzheimer's Society)
The Acid Test
1. Is the person subject to continuous supervision and control?
2. Is the person free to leave? The person may not be saying this or acting on it, but the issue is about how staff would react if the person did try to leave.
Deprivation of Liberty Process
Supervisory Body to arrange the following 6 assessments to take place which need to be met.
1. 18 and over2. Suffering from a mental disorder3. Lacking capacity for the decision to be accommodated in the
hospital or care home. 4. No decision previously made to refuse treatment or care, or
conflict relating to this such as LPA5. Not ineligible for the DoLS6. The person needs to be deprived of their liberty, in their best
interests.
Thank you

Social Prescribing?
Social prescribing aims to help people with socially complex conditions e.g. depression, persistent pain and even failure to cope with life
Professionals suggest people with these conditions visit Recovery Republic in the sound knowledge they are giving their clients a practical “hands up”
It is believed that social prescribing has the potential
to transform modern healthcare, it enables both clinical and social elements to be taken into account therefore not just treating the clinical origins but actually getting to the social roots of the problems.
