West Kent Home Treatment Team and Rapid Response

We provide safe and effective community based treatment in the least restrictive and most appropriate environment for individuals aged 18 and above who are experiencing a mental ill health crisis.

We aim to prevent admission to hospital where appropriate by facilitating treatment in the patient’s home. All patients in receipt of home treatment will receive an individualised treatment plan.

Our multidisciplinary team is made up of nurses, occupational therapists, doctors, support, time and recovery workers and non-medical prescribers.

Where appropriate we can also refer to the west Kent interventions team who work alongside us. This would include a wellbeing assessment and signposting to appropriate outside services to assist in your recovery.

Further information

We are located behind Maidstone hospital next to the birthing centre. Parking is free but you will need to gain a permit from reception upon arrival.
