Service Description

Service Description:
The Humber and North Yorkshire Keyworker Service supports autistic people and people with a learning disability or both up to the age of 25, with the most complex needs and are inpatients in, or at risk of being admitted to, a mental health inpatient unit.
To access a Keyworker the person must:
Have a diagnosis of autism, a learning disability, or both.
Be 0-25 years of age.
Have a potential risk of inpatient admission or are currently in hospital.
Be registered with a GP within the geographical area of Humber and North Yorkshire which includes Hull, East Riding, North Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire, York, and North Yorkshire.
The person must be registered on the Dynamic Support Register (DSR) at either Blue (inpatient), Red or Amber. Those at Green currently do not receive an allocated Keyworker, however, may receive signposting or consultation. (please see infographic for further information). The DSR was developed to ensure that people and families get the right support at the right time, and that local systems are responsive to meeting their needs in a holistic and joined up way. Keyworking is a function of the DSR.
If the person is not on the DSR please contact the Admission Avoidance Hub for Humber or North Yorkshire and York
