As part of North London Foundation Trust's (NLFT) community transformation programme to improve the coordination and continuity of care, the Rehabilitation & Recovery (R&R) teams have now been integrated into three locality-based Core Teams. These changes have already gone live, and service users previously under the R&R teams are now being supported by their aligned Core Team.

There are three Core Teams across the borough of Camden:

• Camden North West Core Team
• Camden Kentish Town Core Team
• Camden South Core Team.

The core teams work closely with GPs, specialist services (including secondary care mental health services), housing and social services.

The focus is on relationship-building, shared responsibility and collaborative working with individuals, their networks and the systems around them, supporting people to find purpose in their lives, expand structured meaningful activities and engage with community-based groups and offers.

Core teams work may include:

• mental health assessment and advice
• pharmacological treatment
• brief psychological therapies
• social care and inclusion
• peer coaching
• psycho-social support including from Voluntary Sector providers
• holistic health and wellbeing support

Using a trauma-informed approach, a holistic personal care and support plan is co-produced with individuals. A named staff member is a point of contact. This is a short-term service; should long-term support be required then the team can refer or suggest alternative services.

Based on the patient's GP practice, the care will now be delivered from the following locations:
