Palm Court at Cygnet Churchill is a 17 bed male mental health acute service. The service will provide a safe and stabilising environment for men who are experiencing an acute episode of mental illness and require an emergency admission. Palm Court is now open and accepting referrals.
The ethos of our service is about assessing and treating people in the least restrictive environment and planning for discharge in a robust and timely fashion. With a focus on stabilisation, we will support service users to manage their mental health, reinforce daily living skills and prepare for independent life back in the community.
Our team works closely and collaboratively with service users, their families and the referrer to provide a seamless pathway from referral to discharge. Our approach is recovery focused and supported by comprehensive multi-disciplinary teams, contributing to shorter lengths of stay.
