Ashness House
Ashness House is a 26-bed inpatient service for males of working age with severe and enduring mental health illness, co-morbid physical health problems and complex needs.
It will provide specialist MDT assessment, treatment and support to stabilise a person’s symptoms and help them gain or regain the skills and confidence to live successfully in the community. A holistic approach to care and treatment by a multi-disciplinary team will facilitate assessment, monitoring and review of both mental and physical wellbeing.
Once service users have stabilised, the recovery goal is to move on to a pathway of community rehabilitation, supported living and then independent living. Our aim is to reduce the length of stay, improve functional wellbeing and general quality of life.
