DHSC Director says joined up working streamlines services
Mental health professionals working alongside police, is a more efficient way of working.

It's after two mental health nurses have been permanently stationed at police headquarters, with a third appointment on the way.
Ms Murray says it means cases can be directed to the most appropriate service more quickly:
