Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust

“we have recently updated our information packs focussed on 'Suicide Prevention: Red Flags". This work is presented as a poster and a screen saver and highlights significant events which can contribute to a change in a person's needs. The React, Engage, Discuss (RED) flags cover emotional, physical, relationship, financial and social factors as well as drawing attention to risk assessment and helpful phone numbers.”

“The Trust has identified that extending the time for staff to handover, from one shift to the next, will require a thorough review of the roster and supporting processes that the Trust operates to generate staff shift patterns. This work, ultimately leading to an increase in the protected time for handover from ten minutes will impact on current shift patterns. The Trust cannot change shift patterns without a robust consultative process and is, therefore, working with union and staff side representation”
