Following in our PIPE AP colleaguesโ footsteps...HMP Hull Progression PIPE is now on Twitter! ๐๐ป Follow us to share in our successes and challenges ๐๐ #PIPE#HMPHull#OPDPathway#EnablingEnvironment#Hello
A new resident arrived this week, our socially creative activity gave him opportunity to meet new people. Itโs been great to see individuals designing and facilitating the activities themselves, taking ownership of what goes on in their community ๐๐ป #ProgressionPIPE
A little late but we recently said a sad farewell to our operational lead who has been with us the last few years & contributed to massive developments on the unit ๐๐ป He will be missed hugely but will no doubt take some of the PIPE ethos into his next role ๐ And welcome...
... to our new operational lead who brings a lot of enthusiasm and we canโt wait to see how he helps the unit flourish even more ๐๐ป change can be tough but everyone has welcomed him to our community #ProgressionPIPE
Lots of supervision this week thinking about the new people in our service & how we can work effectively with them. A keyworker also had a follow up conversation with someone who left a few months ago & is managing well in an open establishment ๐๐ป #OPDpathway#ProgressionPIPE
Last week we said goodbye to our Governor who has supported PIPE throughout his time at Hull ๐๐ป enjoy your well deserved retirement @TOliverhu9 and we welcome a new Governor who we look forward to introducing to the world of PIPEs! #OPDpathway
We had a new arrival join our service today from a secure hospital, very thorough handover and lots of multidisciplinary input to make this a helpful transition to maintain the changes he has made so far ๐๐ป #OPDpathway#ProgressionPIPE
What a busy week.. transfers for 4 of our men to open prisons; such a huge step in their journey but one theyโve prepared for over a no of years. Weโre now trying to improve our follow up process by liaising with our #OPDpathway colleagues so we can continue to provide support ๐๐ป
We attended a multidisciplinary meeting today regarding a man being transferred to the PIPE; lots of discussion about this transition & how to best support him. Lots of support from @HmpHull & our healthcare partners to put effective plans in place ๐๐ป #OPDpathway#ProgressionPIPE
Last week we celebrated 10 years of @HullPIPE! We held a couple of small events with colleagues involved with the service including a visit from previous PIPE staff! It was such a brilliant occasion to look back on the last 10 years & all that the staff & residents have achieved!
We missed a lot of colleagues that unfortunately couldnโt attend due to COVID related circumstances but received some wonderful messages and reflections of the service over the years ๐ our residents did a great job helping to arrange the event...
And some spoke about their time in the service and how it has helped them learn more about themselves and maintain the changes they have made throughout their sentence. Hereโs to another 10 years! #OPDPathway#ProgressionPIPE
Today we heard from a previous resident whoโs getting on well in open conditions. He sent a letter to explain the transition and to help reduce anxieties of others waiting to transfer, he still feels a part of the community despite having left us some months ago! #ProgressionPIPE
Two new residents arriving this week and one transferring out to Cat D, our Transitions committee work hard to support people going through such changes ๐๐ป #ProgressionPIPE#OPDPathway
An eventful week with more structured sessions, processing new referrals, residents cooking for the unit ๐ฅ another resident getting his cat D and some useful supervision sessions reflecting on schemas and how to support the people we work with ๐๐ป #ProgressionPIPE#OPDPathway
Today we received the Enabling Environment award by @rcpsych ๐Couldnโt be prouder of our community in creating a supportive and positive social environment for all who work and live on our PIPE ๐๐ #OPDPathway#EnablingEnvironment
Another resident has progressed to an open prison this week ๐๐ป we plan to contact him in a few weeks to see how heโs getting on ๐ฎ weโve also started our small groups which are going well & residents are reflecting on their progression during difficult circumstances #OPDPathway
A positive week.. recruited a new enthusiastic PIPE officer, various committee meetings held planning future events and exploring ways to improve communication during current times, lots of staff supervision, ending with a purposeful meeting with our commissioner ๐๐ป #OPDPathway
