Improving access to mental health services in Darlington
We would like to know what keeps you well and how you would like to access mental health services in Darlington. It is important they know what this looks like and how it feels for you. Your views will also establish a baseline of what local people’s knowledge of current services are and your expectations of mental health services.
Healthwatch are the independent champion for people who use health and care services. We find out what people like about services, and what could be improved, and we share these views with those with the authority to make change happen.
By sharing your views with us, we will be able to help local providers and partnerships to understand what they need to do to enable you to have greater choice and control over your care, and for you to be supported to live well in your community.
