The aim of the project was to get a baseline of the number of patients who have had blood tests, ECG and physical health observations completed in the past 12 months.

There are 30 patients under Early Intervention in Psychosis team at Bassetlaw Hospital , Nottinghamshire. The elctronic notes and blood reporting system were checked for each of the patients, to get the data on blood test results , ECG reports and Physical health (Blood pressure, heart rate and weight) .

It was noted that 19/30 patients had Blood tests completed, 14/30 had ECG completed and 19/30 had physical health checks completed. All these patients except one were on antipsychotic medications.

Further work is still required in getting 100% results for all these different variables. This may include the need to review the process of how we engage the patients for physical healthcare checks. With the inclusion of a physical healthcare worker now, we might be able to improve results. Hence this evaluation would be redone in a years' time.
