    Mr Dean Bradley was found deceased by hanging in his hostel flat on 15 October 2021, after earlier suicidal behaviour and expressions of paranoid and persecutory beliefs while apparently under the influence of drugs.

    PFD Monitor created a concise, searchable interpretation from the published response wording shown below.

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    A Crisis Café would not have been appropriate for an intoxicated, suicidal person requiring mental health assessment.

    Verbatim wording from the response

    “Following that discussion there was an agreed view that, while there is not a ‘Crisis Café’ provided within the Tees area, such a provision would not have been appropriate for an individual presenting as Mr Bradley did. The appropriate place for him to have been supported at the time of the incident in 2021 was the Crisis Assessment Suite at Roseberry Park which is designated as a place of safety for Police to use under Section 136 of the Mental Health Act, and this remains the case at the present time. This service is provided by Tees Esk & Wear Valleys NHS Foundation Trust and their policy relating to Section 136 clearly identifies that this provision is appropriate for an individual who is intoxicated but not presenting with immediate physical health risks.”

    PFD Monitor interpretation

    The existing Crisis Assessment Suite remains the appropriate place of safety for intoxicated individuals requiring mental health assessment.
