When I was in hospital (not sectioned) there was no therapy. You could have a chat with your key nurse if you wanted, and ward round with the Dr was once a week. It was a place of safety and for medication. I got more knowledge/support/care from other patients in my bay than most of the staff tbh. Not the same hospital as Holly obviously.
Hopefully a robust safety plan and care plan which she will be compliant with can be put in place for her, so that she has the best chance of success in the community
The problem is she’s repeating the same cycle:
- Gets sectioned, is inpatient, high risk and needs watched
- Plans to abscond/escape because she supposedly hates being there
- Absconds
- Brought back to the ward under supervision
- Gets to a point where she can be discharged
- Jumps in the Thames or goes by the banks of the Thames
Aaaaaand repeat. Tbh at what point do you accept someone is beyond help. There’s clearly something wrong with her but it’s more to do with her desperate need to get attention by any means possible. She was offered a place to live as she claims she can’t go back to her parents but she fucked that up as well. It’s such a waste for those who actually want to get better and desperately need these resources.
she’s due to be considered to leave in august
