How we can help

Doncaster adult mental health unit

The Doncaster adult mental health unit consists of the Cusworth ward and Brodsworth ward, serving as our acute inpatient wards for patients aged 18 to 65.

The Skelbrooke ward is a mixed-gender unit offering intensive psychiatric care for patients facing mental health challenges at risk.

Rotherham Swallownest court

The Sandpiper and Osprey wards are located within the Swallownest court, offering care and treatment through a multi-disciplinary approach that includes medical, nursing, occupational therapy, and psychology services. Both wards provide sectorised beds for patients aged 16 to 65 years old.

The Kingfisher psychiatric intensive care unit, situated at Swallownest court, offers intensive care beds for patients facing high-risk acute mental health problems, necessitating temporary and intensive interventions.

The Kingfisher psychiatric intensive care unit also conducts assessments for patients detained under section 136 by the police.

North Lincolnshire Great Oaks mental health unit

The Great Oaks mental health unit caters to patients experiencing acute mental health issues. Our service accommodates patients detained under the mental health act, as well as those who voluntarily seek our services.

When a patient needs acute care, they are often in crisis, anxious, and vulnerable, requiring a high level of attention. Acute wards offer a secure and stabilising environment for individuals who cannot safely receive treatment in the community.
