Introduction

This resource has been developed to support staff working as part of a multi-disciplinary team within a Mental Health and Wellbeing in Primary Care Service.

It is intended to help all staff contribute to the link worker function within the Services, by providing a directory of additional sources of help and support, that people can be connected in with and signposted to, to compliment the support, assessment and treatment they will receive from the team.

It brings together a range of national resources and tools that support and improve mental health and wellbeing. It includes information on digital services and treatments; general sources of advice and support for children and adults; tailored sources of support for specific groups or mental health conditions; resources to support social prescribing; national initiatives and funds; as well as guidance and learning and development opportunities for staff.

This document is not exhaustive and there will be a number of local resources and tools that staff will also want to utilise.

This document will be reviewed and updated as necessary. If you have any questions regarding this document, please email MHWPCServices@gov.scot.
