Guideline providing practice advice on admissions and discharges between mental health acute hospital settings and community or care home settings for children, young people and adults of all ages.

Recommendations cover: overarching principles for good transition, planning for hospital admission and discharge, out-of-area admissions, and support for families and carers throughout admission.

The guideline will be relevant for providers of care and support in inpatient and community mental health and social care services; front-line practitioners and managers, commissioners of mental health services, and people who use inpatient and community mental health services, their families and carers.
