Carer and Relative Support

Carers and relatives play a vital role in caring for loved ones who have mental health problems. We know that being a Carer can be a difficult, demanding and lonely role.

As well as providing care and treatment to our Service Users, we are here to support their Carers and families.  To help us do this LPFT uses the Triangle of Care approach.  This therapeutic alliance between Service Users, Staff, Carers and Relatives promotes safety, supports recovery and sustains well-being.  

You may find it useful to read some of our 'Carer stories' in which they describe their experiences.  If you are feeling worried, confused or have a problem you need help with please contact LPFT Carers Support Team.
