SPECIAL ALLOCATION SCHEME

The Special Allocation Scheme (SAS) service is for patients who have been removed from a GP in Salford or Trafford, following an incident in which the Police have been informed.

Patients remain in the SAS service for a minimum of 12 months.

To avoid this being solely a punitive placement, SPCT uses it as an opportunity to rehabilitate. This is done by building trust and developing positive therapeutic relationships.

This service works closely with the Inclusion Service and the teams are able to use their expertise to help achieve our aims.
