The ICRU’s should be managed by General Adult and Rehabilitation Teams. A Vision for Change asserts that the movement between the acute unit, high dependency area, ICRU and community facilities must be smooth and flow easily. There should be “good working relations between forensic services and the ICRU.” There must also be joint clinical management between catchment area CMHT’s and the ICRU team.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Download Submission to HSE on the Establishment of Regional ICRUs in Irish Mental Health Service” shape=”square” color=”peacoc” align=”center” i_type=”openiconic” i_icon_openiconic=”vc-oi vc-oi-doc” button_block=”true” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.irishpsychiatry.ie%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2020%2F02%2FGSP201201.pdf|||”][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row]
