To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of mandatory training for (a) psychiatrists, (b) psychiatric nurses and (c) social workers on legal obligations under section 117 of the Mental Health Act 1983.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, whether he has made an assessment of the potential merits of mandatory training for (a) psychiatrists, (b) psychiatric nurses and (c) social workers on legal obligations under section 117 of the Mental Health Act 1983.
Section 117 of the Mental Health Act 1983 requires local social services authorities and National Health Service commissioners to provide or arrange for the provision of aftercare to adults or children detained in hospital for treatment under section 3, 37, 45A, or transferred under section 47 or 48 of the Act who then leave hospital. No assessment of patients is required to determine whether they are eligible for s117 aftercare although professionals would of course be expected to work with a patient to understand their individual needs.
There are no plans at present to introduce any such mandatory training or require mandatory recording of the number of people eligible for section 117 who local social services authorities and NHS commissioners have responsibility for.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the safe nursing to patient ratios are for each high dependency unit in each high-security psychiatric hospital; and on how many occasions such ratios have been breached at each hospital in each of the last three years.
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what the safe nursing to patient ratios are for each high dependency unit in each high-security psychiatric hospital; and on how many occasions such ratios have been breached at each hospital in each of the last three years.
Safe nursing to patient ratios in each high dependency unit within the high-security hospitals are determined by the hospitals themselves.
To determine the safe nursing to patient ratios required, the hospitals will take into consideration the number of patients on each individual ward, the acuity and dependency of the patients and known security risk factors associated with each patient.
As there is no prescribed safe nursing to patient ratio, there is no way to quantify a “breach”. Data on nursing to patient ratios in high dependency units in high-security hospitals is not collected centrally by NHS England or the Care Quality Commission.

For example, if a trust had 100 nurses in July and a year later 90 of those nurses remained in post, the trust’s Stability Index would be expressed as 90%.

| ¹ More accurate validation processes in 2006 have resulted in the identification and removal of 9,858 duplicate non-medical staff records out of the total workforce figure of 1.3 million in 2006. Earlier years' figures could not be accurately validated in this way and so will be slightly inflated. The level of inflation in earlier years' figures is estimated to be less than 1 per cent. of total across all non-medical staff groups for headcount figures (and negligible for full-time equivalents). This should be taken into consideration when analysing trends over time. | |
| Note: | |
| Workforce planning is a matter for local NHS organisations to deal with. They are best placed to assess the health needs of their local health community. The number of community psychiatric nurses has increased by 75 per cent. since 1997. | |
