‘Enhanced support for high intensity users of the criminal justice system’ an evaluation of mental health nurse input into integrated offender management services in the north east of England / [electronic resource] : Wendy Dyer, Paul Biddle. - pp. 43-55.

The current UK Government's focus on the development of services to manage and support offenders with mental health problems has resulted in a number of innovative project developments. This research examines a service development in the North East of England which co-located mental health nurses with two Integrated Offender Management teams. While not solving all problems, the benefits of co-location were clear, although such innovations are now at risk from government changes which will make Integrated Offender Management the responsibility of new providers without compelling them to co-operate with health services.
