Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Code of Practice is a reference tool for those dealing with, and caring for people admitted to hospital and care homes with mental health problems. Authored by the Department of Health and produced following wide consultation with those who provide and receive services under the Mental Health Act, this publication will come into force on 3 November 2008. Through the Mental Health Act 2007, the Government has updated the 1983 Act to ensure it keeps pace with the changes in the way that mental health services are - and need to be - delivered. This publication provides guidance and advice to registered medical practitioners, approved clinicians, managers and staff of hospitals, and approved mental health professionals on how they should proceed when undertaking duties under the Act. It also gives guidance to doctors and other professionals about certain aspects of medical treatment for mental disorder more generally. The Mental Health Act Code of Practice is also aimed at all of those working in primary care, Mental Health Trusts, NHS Foundation Trusts as well as solicitors and attorneys who advise on mental health law. The Code should also be beneficial to the police and ambulance services and others in health and social services (including the independent and voluntary sectors) involved in providing services to people who are, or may become, subject to compulsory measures under the Act. It will also be a guide for those working with people with specific mental health needs such as those in nursing and care homes, and those in prison.

Parliament Joint Committee on the Draft Mental Health Bill and published by Stationery Office/Tso. This book was released on 2005 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Committee was appointed to examine the provisions of the draft Mental Health Bill (Cm 6305-I & II, ISBN 0101630522) published in September 2004. This draft Bill was revised in the light of the ethical and civil liberties concerns raised about the original draft Mental Health Bill (Cm 5538-I, II, III, ISBN 0101553838) published in June 2002. The Bill seeks to introduce a new legal framework for the compulsory care and treatment of people suffering from mental disorders under formal powers, subject to safeguards which define when a person can be treated without his or her consent. The Committee's report recommends that the Government should proceed with the Bill, subject to a number of significant amendments identified, including i) clarifying its key principles, using the new Scottish Act as a model, to highlight its aim to safeguard patients and reduce the stigma of mental disorder, as well as protect the public from harm; and ii) clearer definitions for conditions of compulsory powers in treatment, the threshold for risk of harm to others, an individual's right to make decisions about treatment, and the use of non-residential orders. It welcomes the proposed introduction of new mental health tribunals, and the right to an independent advocate. However, concerns are raised over the adequacy of funding and staffing resources available to make the new provisions work. The Committee also concludes that individuals with dangerous and severe personality disorder (DSPD) should not be dealt with by mental health legislation, as they may not meet the conditions for the use of compulsory powers, and therefore recommends that separate legislation should be introduced to manage this small group of people.
