About

Wentbridge

Our Wentbridge Autism Service is a discharge-focused service for men over 18 with a primary diagnosis of autism and detained under the Mental Health Act. Patients also have additional mental health needs. We are a hospital that provides a secure mental health service across several pathways and therefore have access to services that enable us to support patients with multiple diagnoses.

Service Vision

Patients are cared for in a purpose-built, low secure environment for people with autism. In line with our organisational values, our approach focuses on the individual’s needs. The environment provides large therapeutic spaces to facilitate the delivery of safe and effective care to patients who may have behaviours that require more support.
