Mental Health First Aid Guidelines (September 2009)
The Mental Health First Aid Guidelines contain information about how a member of the community can give initial help to someone who they think might be developing or experiencing a mental illness or a mental health crisis. Nine different guidelines are now available and include information on early intervention in the disorders of depression, psychosis, eating disorders, problem drinking and problem drug use. In addition, four mental health crisis situations are also covered: suicidal thoughts and behaviours, non-suicidal self-injury, panic attacks and assisting (adult or child) after a traumatic event.

Implementing Recovery (9th September 2009)
This position paper, from the Sainsbury Centre for Mental Health, sets out the ten major challenges for mental health services to put recovery at the heart of their everyday practice.
Implementing recovery means supporting people to take much greater control over the way that they are treated. It means challenging stigma and discrimination much more assertively in communities. And it requires mental health professionals to work in a very different way to support service users' own priorities and their hopes for the future.
