Patient Experience Library Newsletter - Latest Edition

Contained in this newsletter is information around a recent study into mental health service user and carer perspectives on safety issues in UK mental health services.

The study, based on interviews with mental health service users and carers, found differences in the ways that safety was perceived. Carers were primarily concerned with physical safety, to prevent self-harm and suicide. Service users recognised physical safety issues, but also talked about psychological safety, and experiences within services that had led to fear and distress.
