How our service can help you
We provide a national, specialist outpatient assessment, treatment and rehabilitation service for people, aged over 18, who have complex psychosis, including schizo-affective disorder. A psychotic illness involves distorted perceptions of reality thinking, feeling, hearing and seeing often with symptoms of hallucinations and delusions.
National services are for people who live throughout the United Kingdom.
We treat people's physical and mental health. Our aim is to help people maintain their health and to reduce the risk of hospital readmission.
We encourage people, and their carers, to be actively involved in all decisions made about their treatment and care.
**The National Psychosis Unit will no longer be overseen by the Croydon and BDP directorate as of July 3, 2023. The PMOA Directorate will oversee the clinical and operational management of the unit**
