Mental Health Assessment

“Mental Health Assessment” helps you gain a clearer understanding of how you are feeling and what the next steps might be.

During the assessment:
✔ You will have a consultation with a mental health nurse.
✔ Your symptoms and previous experiences are assessed.
✔ This is followed by a consultation with a doctor.
✔ A personalised plan for the next steps is developed.

A step-by-step approach allows us to provide more comprehensive and personalised support.

How does the service work?

1. Consultation with a mental health nurse (50 minutes)

During the first appointment, we gather comprehensive background information and assess your current situation.

• You will talk about how you have been feeling and the main difficulties you are experiencing.
• Your symptoms and their impact on your daily life are assessed.
• Your previous experiences, health history, and the need for any further assessments are discussed.
• Questionnaires may be completed if needed.

2. Doctor’s consultation (30 minutes)

The second stage is a consultation with a doctor.

• The information gathered is reviewed and analysed.
• Your mental health is assessed as a whole.
• Possible underlying causes and supportive approaches are discussed.
• A personalised plan for the next steps is developed.
• If needed, further assessments or appropriate support services may be recommended.

3. Next Steps and Support

The assessment provides a clearer understanding of your situation and helps identify possible next steps.
