Inspection Report Yields Positive Outcome for Ansel’s Flagship Service

 

In December 2010 the CQC issued The Ansel Clinic Nottingham with a positive first Annual Mental Health Act Report. The CQC were “impressed with the effective systems for Mental Health Act administration”  in addition to other elements of the service management and delivery.
 
This first inspection of Ansel’s flagship service verifies the consistently high and professional standard to which we operate. 
 
The report also notes that “patients view the service in a positive light and believe that the location of the Ansel Clinic will assist their rehabilitation enabling contact with family and opportunities for occupation or training”.
 
Our aim is to support patients on their path toward greater independence. The location of the unit - set right in the heart of the community - is a deliberate part of the rehabilitative process and it’s rewarding to learn that this is recognised and valued by the patients themselves.
