## Description
CNWL is set to introduce a new supported living initiative, offering 30-40 beds with 24-hour staffing across Brent, Harrow, Hillingdon, Kensington & Chelsea, and Westminster. This program aims to facilitate early discharge from mental health wards by providing continuous support, reducing the duration of hospital stays, and managing repatriations. It will create recovery-focused environments that help patients build independence, comply with treatments, and integrate into the community with the help of additional social care support. The service will also include 3-4 'step down workers' to further assist in achieving timely discharges, coordinating with CNWL teams and third-party organisations to optimise patient care and discharge processes.
