Mental Health Act Assessment?

Steel Maiden · 13-04-2009, 08:45 PM

I've been sectioned three times, but once I was so very nearly sectioned, but I got away with it and was sent home. It was at my psych's office. I was kept in a separate room, but I kept throwing stuff around the room and screaming my head off, hallcuinating and sh*t.

But anyway, is there a document I can download off the internet that shows the guidelines for a mental health act assessment? Or is in the mental health act (which I do have)?

Because I am sort of collecting mental-health related PDFs.

Thanks Miss Pixie.

Don't worry about it Control Freak.

I'll check the mental health act carefully in the early hours of tomorrow morning when I can't sleep and see if there is anything about assessment. I could do with a good read at 3am.
