The Devon Partnership have recently launched a practice guide entitled “Putting recovery at the heart of all we do” (PDF). The guide details the values, principles, practices and standards needed for workers to work in a way that promotes and supports recovery of the people they work with. This two page guide reflects many of the messages that have come out of the SRN Narrative Research Project and also compliments the Realising Recovery training materials developed by NES and SRN. The guide has been shared with all staff in Devonshire Partnership Trust, staff at other commissioned services in Devon, as well as every GP practice. SRN advertise a range of events and resources developed by external organisations. In doing so we do not necessarily endorse or recommend them and we are in no way responsible for content or quality. |
