Abstract
In Merseyside, an A&E Navigator programme operates in 3 hospital sites (Alder Hey, Royal Liverpool, Aintree) across Alder Hey Children’s NHS Foundation Trust (AHFT) and Liverpool University Foundation Hospital Trust (LUFHT) to prevent youth violence. Navigators are embedded within each acute hospital trust to offer support to young people (10-24 years) who have been affected by violence or identified as at risk of violence. Attendance at acute healthcare settings is viewed as a ‘teachable moment’ when young people may be more likely to consider their life circumstances and engage with support. The programme has three core components (crisis and safety support; stabilisation support; maintenance support) and uses a personalised approach to provide support to young people and refer them into wider support in the community). In July 2021, the MVRP commissioned LJMU to conduct a service evaluation of the Merseyside Navigator programme (Quigg et al., 2022) with further yearly evaluations published in year two (Harris et al., 2023) and year three (Smith et al., 2024) of implementation. This final summary report draws on data from the three annual reports (with additional data collected between July and October 2024) to summarise learning from the implementation of the Merseyside Navigator programme and assess perceptions and potential impacts.
