Mental Health Response Vehicle & FPCC Clinical Lead with Gloucestershire Health and Care NHS Foundation Trust in Gloucester
The MHRRV pilot was intended as a forerunner to mental health ambulances, as the NHS Long Term Plan (LTP) priority stipulates the requirement for these from 2024. The pilot also reflected the national commitment to partnership working between police and NHS in the response to mental health incidents. The Right Care, Right Person (RCRP) national partnership agreement, published in July 2023, describes the strategic ambition for police to be less involved in responses to these incidents where possible and a move towards a more health-based emergency response to Mental Health Crises in the Community.
