Community Intensive Support Service (Sheffield Health and Social Care NHS Trust)
The Community Intensive Support Service (CISS) is a specialist health service for people with learning disabilities, and their carers, living in Sheffield.
The team works closely with the Community Learning Disability Team and Firshill Rise ATS (inpatient service).
We provide intensive support to people who are very unwell. This means they may be struggling with mental health problems. They may have behaviours that are high risk and difficult to manage.
Our work helps people to be cared for in their own home rather than an inpatient hospital like Firshill Rise ATS. Our staff can deliver training on Positive Behaviour Support and mental health to family or carers.
Forensic Outreach Liaison Service
The Forensic Outreach Liaison Service is a new type of service that supports people aged 18 years and above who have a learning disability or autism or both, who have come into contact with the criminal justice system. This service works closely with the Community Learning Disability Team and the Community Intensive Support Service.
How do I access the service?
People are referred to these services from our Community Learning Disability Team or Firshill Rise ATS. We do not accept direct referrals from services outside of the organisation.
