Mental health services across the UK are under intense pressure. Over 500,000 children are waiting for care, and adult services face rising demand with vacancy rates exceeding 25%. With long waits and limited capacity, services urgently need scalable, digital solutions to improve access, consistency, and efficiency—especially as budgets tighten and expectations rise.
Clinicians spend valuable time collecting basic patient information. Psyomics shifts this burden by enabling service users to share symptom, contextual, and social details at the point of referral. Patient-reported information, including validated measures and free-text responses, are captured upfront streamlining admin, reducing duplication, and allowing clinicians to focus on care.
Service users often feel frustrated by having to repeat their story. The Psyomics Platform captures their voice from the beginning—why they’re seeking help, in their own words. This not only enriches clinical understanding but can help people to prepare for face-to-face appointments. Many complete it at home, in their own time—25% overnight.
