Chasing a Referral

"Chasing a Referral"

About: Haven House

(as the patient),

Hi just wondering how long does it take once a referral is made? Mental health is getting severe, very high risk at home, don’t feel safe.

Crisis team made a referral and just wondering how long it take for them to pick it up and what are the next steps once accepting the referral or declining the referral.

Thank you

Dear Menkf73

Thank you for your post.

I am very sorry if there has been a delay in response to a referral which has impacted on your mental health. Referrals are reviewed within a very short time frame with a decision being made and relayed to the referring care team who should keep you up to date.

If you wish to discuss further then please contact me on sarah.taylor4@nottshc.nhs.uk
