Community Mental Health Teams (CMHTs) work in partnership with Health and Social Services along with other voluntary sector providers.
CMHTs provide care for working-age adults (18-65 years) who have moderate to severe, unstable mental health problems.
Individuals with mild to moderate difficulties or those whose symptoms are stable are advised to see the Primary Mental Health Support Service – see the PMHSS website, Stepiau, or access via the GP.
In Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan Community Mental Health Teams serve populations according to their GP practice.
Community Mental Health Teams aim to:
- Promote health and recovery
- Provide a local response to local people
- Deliver individualised care based on a person's needs
- Offer a variety of services including assessment, diagnosis and treatment
- Utilise a range of therapies, techniques and social interventions
