When we receive a professional referral, potential service users are sent a form for them to complete and return to us.<\/p>\n
Those deciding to engage with our service need to complete the form and return it to us in order for their referral to be formally accepted.<\/p>\n
Once a referral has been accepted, it is reviewed by our triage team.<\/p>\n
If the referral is appropriate, we will invite the person being referred to attend an information session at our office in Oxford.<\/p>\n
Information sessions are an opportunity to find out more about our service, ask any questions or raise any concerns and meet with someone who has been through our therapy programme.<\/p>\n
If a referral is not thought suitable for our group therapy programme, we will endeavour to provide details of more appropriate services.<\/p>\n
After attending an Information Session and deciding to continue with a referral, a patient\u2019s name is placed on a waiting list for assessment.<\/p>\n
When an individual reaches the top of the waiting list, one of our therapists will send out a date and time for an individual assessment.<\/p>\n
Assessments are usually carried out at our main base in Oxford.<\/p>\n
Once an assessment is completed, a decision will be made regarding therapy.<\/p>\n
This decision will be based on information from the assessment including risk and the goals identified by the service user.<\/p>\n
This may result in signposting to another service or services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
