Mental Health Application


Mental Health Application:

The iPatrol MHA is the first application of its kind in UK policing. The MHA uses a blended approach of clinical practice and operational policing to better inform and assist officers dealing with mental health related incidents. It is hoped and intended the MHA will instil greater officer confidence through being better able to identify, record, evidence and describe, certain mental health problems using appropriate clinical language to assist health professionals.

The Mental Health Application allows for the risk assessment of an individual at the scene by the application user. The solution covers four distinct areas:

  1. To complete an Officer Risk Assessment Report
  2. Interface and update of Niche RMS® mental Health Monitoring Form
  3. Help and Guidance
  4. Access to Crisis Services
