Pathway Development Service – Yorkshire and Humberside

The Pathway Development Service (PDS) brings together clinicians from the Trust and Inspire North. We work across Yorkshire and Humberside to support teams and systems to deliver trauma-informed, relational care for:

• people age 18 and older with a diagnosis of, or difficulties associated with, ‘personality disorder’
• who are currently placed in/at risk of entering a secure hospital

We also support services working with young people (age 16 and older) who face similar challenges, even if secure care isn’t part of their current journey as we recognise the particular importance of early intervention with young people and supporting transitions through services.

Our aim is to:

• reduce admissions to secure care and to help people move through secure care and successfully transition to the community.

We are a partnership organisation bringing together clinicians from the Trust and Inspire North.
