Rejected petition Implement the Open Dialogue method for mental healthcare in the UK

The Open Dialogue method is not only more humane but also proven to be more effective.

The approach avoids hospitalisation and over-medication of patients, instead focusing on early-intervention, fast response, family and social network therapy within the patient’s community.

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s not clear what the petition is asking the UK Government or Parliament to do.

We understand that you would like the Open Dialogue method used in mental healthcare, but we are not sure exactly what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition to require NHS England to train staff in the method if that is something you would like to see happen.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
