17 yo old (so not really a child, but not under adult services).
Says is suicidal. Gets taken to A&E. They can't or won't admit her (I'm not sure).
Says she will self harm if gets sent home.
Has spent night in A&E with her mother sitting in a chair unable to leave her unattended.
Has had 2 Crisis people who don't know what to do.
What will actually happen?
She is under cahms and has all sorts of involvement with services but doesn't engage, or does and then moves onto a different sort of crisis.
This is the latest in numerous incidents.
