This will, for the first time ever, enable the setting of access and waiting time standards in mental health services, including for people with mental health problems and learning disabilities. The standards will include:<br> <br></p><p> </p><p>- treatment within six weeks for 75% of people referred to the Improving Access to Psychological Therapies programme, with 95% of people being treated within 18 weeks;</p><p> </p><p>- treatment within two weeks for more than 50% of people experiencing a first episode of psychosis; and</p><p> </p><p>- £30 million targeted investment will help people in crisis to access effective support in accident and emergency.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Starting this year, the Department and NHS England will work together with mental health system partners to develop detailed proposals for the introduction of further access and waiting time standards from 2016 onwards.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Earl Howe question first answered 18/12/2014 15:59:15 answering member 2000 label Biography information for Earl Howe
