In MHForms, sharing with the NHS allows for both the Police and the NHS to log if ongoing police presence is required and if they remain/leave, and provide reasoning.
All actions are audited in the police presence log below.
After confirming arrival at the Place of Safety and sharing the form with the NHS, you can log your ongoing presence in the Police Presence Log.
To update the police presence log:
Click the green UPDATE button at the bottom of the incident.
Confirm if you are still at the Place of Safety.
Answer whether the NHS has requested ongoing Police presence.
Provide the name of the staff member you spoke to.
Enter the reasoning for their request and any necessary extra detail.
Confirm the action you took and provide your reasoning.
You will be prompted every hour or 2 hours (depending on your Force's configuration) to update this, if you have not updated it already.
You can update police presence requests as much as necessary by returning to the incident and selecting the update button. You will see a log of all entered police presence information entered by yourself and NHS staff.
