Synopsis

The Choice and Partnership Approach (CAPA) is a service transformation model that combines collaborative and participatory practice with service users to enhance effectiveness, leadership, skills modelling and demand and capacity management. It is focussed on adding value for the service user by putting them at the heart of everything we do. CAPA has been implemented in many CAMHS teams in the UK, Ireland, Australia, Belgium, Canada and New Zealand, and in adult mental health in New Zealand. We are Ann and Steve, two child and adolescent psychiatrists. We work in teams that have run CAPA for many years. Although developed originally in our Children's Mental Health Services, the 11 key Components of CAPA are system free. Their flexibility is evidenced by the way CAPA has spread by word of mouth throughout many countries, cultures and health systems. This book tells you everything you need to know to implement CAPA. If you are already running CAPA then there are tips to keep going and troubleshoot. Service stories from around the world to tell you how real teams have found it, what they like and 3 top tips. The evaluation section describes what clients and staff think and the impact on access and service performance. What's new? The focus is on CAPA implementation and impact. There are new and expanded sections covering the areas people find harder to implement- job planning and Core and Specific segments of work. Read about crates of oranges and melons and trays of slices of fruit! The stories from services are written in their own hand, from all over the world.
