Description:
The Guardianship under the Mental Health Act 1983, SSDA702 is a mandatory collection and was first approved by the Strategic Information Group for Adult Social Care (SIGASC) under the reference number SSDA702. SIGASC has now been superseded by the Adult Social Care Data and Outcomes Board (ASC-DOB).
General description
The collection relates to those patients aged 16 or over subject to Guardianship under Section 7 or 37 of the Mental Health Act 1983. The purpose of Guardianship is to enable patients to receive care in the community where it cannot be provided without the use of compulsory powers. It provides a framework, as part of the overall care and treatment plan, for working with a patient to achieve as independent a life as possible.
The information obtained from the collection is used to assess the impact of on-going mental health policy, and is intended to provide local authorities with the information to make informed decisions and improvements within this area.
