Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Foundation Trust has launched a new leaflet for service users on their wards and the people who support them.
The leaflet is designed to start an open and honest conversation about any potential use of force during their stay and explains how everyone is kept safe on their wards.
People from all backgrounds were involved in developing the leaflet including:service users, carers, volunteers, people with lived experience and staff working in their clinical teams
The leaflet features views, feedback and contributions from Sheffield Voices , Disability Sheffield and Sheffield African Caribbean Mental Health Association (SACMHA) , as well as other NHS Trusts across the country.
