About

East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT) is seeking a provider for an 11-bedded community-based mental health Crisis and Step-Down Service at Kelvin Grove, Rothsay Road, Bedford. The service will deliver a short-stay, trauma-informed alternative to hospital admission and provide 24/7 support to enable admission avoidance and timely discharge from inpatient settings; it will also offer step-down capacity for people ready to leave acute wards but not yet ready for independent living. The specification requires a recovery-focused model embedding Psychologically Informed Environments (PIEs) and relational security, and close system integration with Crisis Resolution Home Treatment Teams (CRHTT), Community Mental Health Teams (CMHT), inpatient wards and other crisis alternatives across Bedfordshire and Luton.
