PRESENTATION

Beyond the wrong door: Orchestrating integrated care for dual diagnosis in 2026

This session explores the evolution of the “No Wrong Door” policy as it reaches full implementation in 2026. Moving past the traditional siloing of mental health and addiction services, this presentation examines the transition toward a truly integrated, “whole-person” clinical model. We will analyse the shift from parallel treatment pathways to concurrent care, focusing on how clinicians can utilise shared data environments, multi-agency triage, and peer-clinical dyads to eliminate service “bouncing.” The session blends high-level clinical rigour with practical strategies for implementing trauma-informed care in complex dual-diagnosis cases.

Learning objectives

At the end of this presentation, delegates will be able to:

1. Explore the 2026 “No Wrong Door” framework: Identify the core systemic requirements, specifically the transition from simple referrals to the mandate of “warm handovers” and shared clinical governance.
2. Evaluate integrated vs parallel care models: Assess the clinical efficacy of concurrent treatment models for dual diagnosis and identify the barriers to shifting from institutional siloing to integrated service delivery.
3. Apply collaborative assessment techniques: Implement strategies such as Multi-Agency Intake and “Reach-in” support protocols to reduce patient attrition and eliminate service “bouncing” in complex cases.
4. Integrate peer support with psychiatric care: Formulate strategies for building “Peer-Clinical Dyads” that ensure parity of esteem, allowing lived-experience professionals to function as integral members of the clinical treatment team.
