Treatments for psychosis; how the
NHS has pioneered new research and service models to improve outcomes.
Paul French
Promoting recovery in psychosis
• For many years a diagnosis associated with psychosis was assumed to be catastrophic.
• Don’t talk to people about their hallucinations. • Stories of clinicians saying you would be better off with cancer. • We have known about 20 year loss of life compared to peers for a long
time.
• “all these recovery messages not helpful for those people that don’t recover”
Perceptions of mental health and mental illness have changed
Policy Implementation Guidelines
• Introduction of EIP services in 1998 as part of the National Service Framework
• Promoted the importance of working with people in their First Episode of Psychosis
What does an early psychosis team do
1. Highlighted the possibility to prevent psychosis in the ultra high risk individuals
2. Reduce DUP (Duration of Untreated Psychosis):
3. Optimise initial experience of acute care & treatment:
4. Maximise recovery & prevent relapse during critical period:

In conclusion
• EIP services are well and truly embedded within clinical practice right across the NHS in England
• Theses services have achieved a huge amount over the past couple of years to see people within a 2 week time frame – internationally recognised
• We are now evaluating what interventions are offered to individuals and their families to promote recovery and measuring whether this is achieved
• We are the only country in the world that measure delays to services for people with psychosis in days and weeks not months and years.
• Cancer UK – more than 25,000 patients joined clinical trials last year - we need to encourage research across our services and ensure people get access to early trials and we make the most of research opportunities.
