Labour's health spokesman emphasizes the need to manage people with severe mental ill health after the Nottingham attacks. Shadow health secretary Wes Streeting states that addressing failures in mental health services is a priority for Labour if they come into power.
The Nottingham attacks showed the "tragic consequences" of failing to manage people with severe mental ill health, Labour 's health spokesman says. Shadow health secretary Wes Streeting , who is the MP for the area where Grace O'Malley-Kumar's family live, says addressing failures in mental health services is a "priority" for Labour if they form the next Government .
The special review was ordered into the Nottinghamshire Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust by the Government. It came after concerns were raised over the trust's care of Valdo Calocane, who killed Barnaby Webber, Grace O'Malley-Kumar and Ian Coates on June 13, last year.The review, carried out by the Care Quality Commission , looked at patient safety and the quality of care provided by the trust.
Speaking about the review today, Mr Streeting told Nottinghamshire Live: "We've got a really serious challenge with mental ill health in our country. I think particularly for young people, we've got mental health services in desperately short supply. In terms of Labour's plans for mental health services, Mr Streeting said the party would ensure there is mental health support in every school and mental health hubs in every community. Mr Streeting also said the party would recruit an extra 8,500 mental health support workers.
