Description
The aim of the Service / Contract is to deliver appropriate support to adults residing in West Lothian that have moderate mental health problems. Individuals will be supported to identify personal outcomes and priorities and will be provided with specialist advice on a range of issues; this may involve signposting to other social or clinical services.

Services within the Hubs will be delivered through a partnership between Primary and Secondary Care Practitioners and the Third Sector to ensure that people receive appropriate support when they need it. The focus will be on ensuring that people have access to meaningful and effective community supports as an alternative to seeing their GP which may reduce the likelihood of future inappropriate or unavoidable admission to hospital.
