We are currently working hard to secure Right to Choose contracts across England. This means that we are only able to offer the Right to Choose scheme in selected locations at the moment, with a view of expanding the eligible areas in the near future. If you would like to check your local area's eligibility please get in touch with us at enquiries@rtnmentalhealthsolutions.com.

What is Right to Choose?
If you live in England, you have a legal Right to Choose (RTC) an alternative provider if the current wait time is more than 18-weeks.
The NHS pays for RTC referrals, so the process will not cost you anything.

Currently under an urgent or emergency (crisis) care team
In high security psychiatric services
Detained under the Mental Health Act
Detained in a secure setting, such as prison or a secure children’s home
Serving as a member of the armed forces (family members not in active service are eligible)
