The government has started to focus on the importance of mental health facilities over the last decade with new commitments in April 2015 being that treatment within 6 weeks for 75% of people referred to the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies programme, with 95% of people being treated within 18 weeks, treatment within 2 weeks for more than 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis. In order to achieve these targets a substantial investment plan has been allocated to support more acute hospitals.
It has been accepted by the government that mental health has not been given the same attention, and support over the years as physical health, resulting in the government’s commitment to balance out both sectors, and ensure mental and physical health services are given equal priority by 2020.
