Thalamos Electronic Mental Health Act Solution

Thalamos Electronic Mental Health Act Solution

In June 2022, ELFT switched to the electronic Mental Health Act solution, Thalamos, to complete several types of statutory MHA forms digitally As you know, following the successful pilot run in C&H in 2021, ELFT started rolling out Thalamos to the rest of the Trust. Since June 2022:

  • Our Approved Clinicians have been completing, signing and serving T2s and H5s on Thalamos
  • Our inpatient doctors have been completing, signing and serving H1s on Thalamos
  • Our Receiving Officers (Charge Nurses on our Mental Health wards) have been able to receive and accept H1s and H5s using Thalamos too.

Since 6th February this year AMHP's have been able to complete Part 2 on CTO1s and CTO7s on Thalamos from 06/02.

  • Phase 4 - S2 and S3 applications – GO LIVE 20/02/23
