Anyone who uses our services first gets an assessment of their mental health needs and a plan of the care and support they will receive. They  will also have one named person who co-ordinates their care and support. This person will be called either a named professional or,  if your needs are more complex,  a care co-ordinator. This person should be your main point of contact.  You can speak to them about how your treatment and support are going.
