Testimonial Text Placement

Service user testimonial

My experience with the service was good, it all went really well. It definitely helped in terms of learning coping skills which has come in handy. And just teaching me how to handle certain situations. I’m finally back at work now as well so that’s been helpful

Our aim is to offer assessment to everyone who refers to the service within 10 working days or 5 working days in urgent need. Recent figures show:

  • 1

  • every veteran referred was 
    contacted within a day

 

  • average number of days
    wait for assessment

 

  • 11 

  • average number of days
    wait for treatment

 

  • 4

  • average number of days wait for
    assessment for those with urgent need
