10 High Impact Changes for Mental Heath Services

The 10 high impact changes were first launched in 2004. Now, building on the success of the original work, this guide sets 10 High Impact Changes for use across mental health services. The scope is wider but our aim of improving quality and efficiency of care for each and every service user remains the same and will continue to guide our service improvement activity through 2006 and beyond. The 10 high impact changes aim to improve quality of care but they are also about improving the efficiency of services – making the best use of resources to benefit service users. In this sense the drive to increase efficiency provides a more streamlined and effective service tailored to individual service user needs.
