More facilities and inpatient beds for OCD sufferers
No family should endure the heartache that Michelle has faced.
Her son is one of the death to suicide statistics for 2023. Her son, Liam suffered for nearly 6 years battling with OCD. He was told he required inpatient care due to his severe life impacting OCD. This was never offered and he committed suicide on 5th May 2023.
The UK has only one NHS 24 hour care facility nationally, providing 10 beds for both OCD and BDD patients.
Michelle wrote to Steve Barlcay the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care asking for more facilities and 24 hour inpatient beds for OCD sufferers.
