Acute Psychiatric, Elm Ward and Maple Ward Elm Ward and Maple Ward are both 20 bedded adult acute admissions wards, based at West Park Hospital in Darlington. The wards offer short term admission to people experiencing mental illness, when the risks are too high for them to be treated and supported within their own home. A multi disciplinary care package is provided to reduce risks and stabilise illness to a level that people can return home at the earliest opportunity. The service is for adults aged 18 years and up. It does not discriminate against age but focuses on safety. Both wards offer physical health support, psychological therapies, medication reviews, occupational therapies and risk assessment.

Initially, we will visit to complete a screening assessment. We will also discuss your present mental health needs and how we may be able to help. We will also give your carer the opportunity to discuss their own support needs in relation to the support they offer you.

If you are in hospital we will get you the support you need when you are ready to leave and help to prevent you from going back into hospital

will then work with you to agree a care plan to help meet your individual needs
