STARS (Southend Treatment and Recovery Service)

This means we looked for evidence that people’s care, treatment and support achieved good outcomes and promoted a good quality of life, based on best available evidence.

At our last assessment we rated effective as requires improvement. At this assessment the rating has changed to good.

This meant people’s outcomes were consistently good, and people’s feedback confirmed this.

Staff assessed the physical and mental health of all people following referral. They developed individual care plans which were reviewed regularly through multidisciplinary discussion and updated as needed. Staff provided a range of treatment and care for people based on national guidance and best practice. The team included or had access to the full range of specialists required to meet the needs of people. Staff from different disciplines worked together as a team to benefit people.
