Arbury Court provides medium and low secure care and Psychiatric Intensive Care (PICU) for women aged 18 years and over with Personality Disorder (PD) and mental illness. Each service within the site has a unique focus, ensuring that the needs of all women can be met. Patients can move through services as their needs change, to focus on the next step in their recovery journey.

The service offers a personalised assessment and recovery-based treatment pathway for women with complex needs. Using the rehabilitation and recovery treatment approach, we ensure that care is focused on the person. Recovery principles underpin this. We seek to create an atmosphere of hope and optimism where we work in partnership with patients. The Multidisciplinary Team (MDT) provide a highly structured approach to support patients in the early phase of their treatment which changes and modifies as each patient moves along the care pathway.

Arbury Court uses a range of outcome measures that link in with My Shared Pathway recovery journey, including Health of the Nation Outcome Scales (HoNOS) Secure. Offending behaviour and related risks are regularly recorded through specific, evidence-based interventions, such as Historical Clinical Risk management (HCR-V3) and START that include insight, treatment compliance and relapse prevention.
