Vita Health Group operates a fully clinically governed model which means that at mental health expert assessment, clinical measures and an expert clinical view will provide a working diagnosis and ensure an evidence-based approach to treatment pathway is provided. Clinical measures also allow the measurement and demonstration of case progress and successes. This step-by-step process allows patients to celebrate milestones and see the overall goal from the start.
Our team conduct an Expert Mental Health Assessment via telephone with an employee with the following key aims:
Establish a working diagnosis – definition of presenting issue
Conduct a mental state and full risk assessment
Provide psychoeducation to support best engagement in the services available and actively support wellbeing
Collaboratively work with an individual to enable them to make an informed choice regarding their treatment – (convenience/location/telephone/in-person/face-to-face).
Place individual in correct treatment pathway
Advise organisation on progress and make occupational focused recommendations
Psychological Therapy treatment is then delivered in line with Nice Guidance and the stepped model of care
Step 2
Our Guided Self-Help provision is delivered digitally by Computerised Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (cCBT) or via workbook (Bibliotherapy) according to individual client choice. Guided self-help means learning Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) techniques which can help the client manage their symptoms, with the support of a practitioner. Where possible, we encourage clients to engage with our cCBT option due to its flexible and bespoke delivery and our exceptional outcomes and testimonials from clients.
cCBT
Vita Health Group selected ‘Silver Cloud’ as their chosen cCBT software provider. The senior clinical and operational team have experienced a variety of cCBT programmes, and the selection has been made based on fulfilling criteria in clinical, operational quality and suitability for the corporate and organisational market. The work with our digital partner has allowed Vita to develop bespoke treatment pathways and additional wellbeing tools that support sustained recovery for our clients.
Bibliotherapy
Those clients who choose bibliotherapy as their guided self-help option will receive a NICE approved workbook to their home address that is focussed on their specific problem that will be based on Depression or Anxiety. The client works through reading and exercises in the book on a weekly basis to support their recovery. They will have booked telephone appointments with a psychological wellbeing practitioner for up to 6 sessions.
The PWP supports the client in their work and therapeutic progress. Feedback and results from our bibliotherapy are very positive with exceptional return to work outcomes. Clients appreciate having their own reference and work that forms part of managing a sustained recovery and maintaining a relapse prevention plan.
Step 3
We provide CBT “in person via telephone, secure video link or face to face Time-limited courses of therapy are delivered in line with the NICE evidence base for the clients’ mental health presentation and sessions are only delivered where clinically indicated.
