These service standards address the responsibilities and requirements of all the organisations and individuals who contribute to the provision of quality social care in the three high security hospitals for people with mental health problems: Ashworth, Broadmoor and Rampton. The document should be read alongside the 'Review of social work in the high security hospitals' (the Lewis report). The standards are divided into six free standing sections, each addressing the responsibilities and requirements of one organisation (the Hospital Social Care Service, the Hospital itself, the local council providing and managing the social care service, the local councils with responsibilities for patients, the local councils in whose areas the hospitals are situated and the Probation Service).
