This document provides information for Trusts about the Government's intentions for the delivery of personality disorder services within general mental health and forensic settings. All Trusts delivering mental health services need to consider how to meet the needs of patients with a personality disorder who experience significant distress or difficulty as a result of their disorder. Funding will be available to enable Trusts to develop personality disorder services over the next three- year period from 2003- 2006. The purpose of the Guidance is: to assist people with personality disorder who experience significant distress or difficulty to access appropriate clinical care and management from specialist mental health services; to ensure that offenders with a personality disorder receive appropriate care from forensic services and interventions designed both to provide treatment and to address their offending behaviour; and to establish the necessary education and training to equip mental health practitioners to provide effective assessment and management.
