## Description
The service is for Havering adult residents or those presenting to Havering emergency services who perceive themselves to be in, or at risk of moving into, mental health crisis (self-defined). This is the defining criteria for the service and robust screening procedures will be required that ensure access and prioritisation of those in most need. Those with multiple needs and co-morbidities are to be welcomed provided that the primary need is mental health crisis. <br/>Access to the service will normally be direct access by self-presentation. Prior to operation partner agencies will make people aware of the service and introduce people via referral pathways.<br/><br/>Havering Crisis  Café will support people in crisis to better self-manage their symptoms and distress in a safe and appropriate environment. This will  improve access to Mental Health services as an alternative  to ED  attendances.<br/>to reduce activity in Emergency Departments and the wider system including mental health services, police and ambulance services.<br/><br/>The key objectives will be to:<br/>•	Provide a non-stigmatising, calm and safe environment.<br/>•	Provide support to help people resolve their crisis.<br/>•	Provide practical and emotional support to enable the service users and carers to better self- manage their distress, aid their recovery, and reduce dependency. <br/>•	Ensure that support staff, peer supporters and volunteers are trained, supported and professional in their approach.<br/>•	Operate as an alternative to Emergency Departments and other emergency services for people experiencing a mental health crisis that does not require medical intervention.<br/>•	Link with the wider service system to ensure a joined-up partnership approach to the development of local services.<br/><br/>The  Provider will: <br/>•	support each user of service to remain at the centre of their care, with informed choice over all aspects of their care and the inclusion of their chosen support network (incl. family/friends/advocates/other key partner agencies etc)<br/>•	see each person as an individual and not just focus on their mental health condition. Take a holistic approach to respecting people’s own understanding of their distress, their needs and strengths, and recognising all aspects of what brings meaning and value to people’s lives. This will include considering, and addressing as needed, the wider social aspects that may have precipitated their mental health crisis (such as safe housing, financial security, physical health, relationships)<br/>•	acknowledge individual differences, such as age, gender, culture, beliefs and support net-works and intersectionality<br/>•	try to understand each individual’s situation and experience, as each person is different – ‘what happened to you’, as opposed to ‘what’s wrong with you’.<br/><br/>A proportion of the Provider staff will have lived experience of mental health issues and will be able to provide a Peer Support element to the care ...
