How is this woman not been held for assessment? If you try to commit suicide or harm yourself or are deemed psychotic the police can take you and hold you at the hospital until you are seen by a doctor then if he deems you needing help he can put you on a hold or at the least have a psychiatrist assess you and put you on a hold under the mental health act. Is it because she goes voluntary???? I'm beyond confused how she hasn't spent any time in elm or lime ward (I forget which is the female ward) ... who is not doing their job right? Three times last week she had an ambulance attend her home, surely she can see that isn't normal behaviour? If she had any self awareness she'd know she needs some kind of intervention or outside input to help her understand why or what she is doing ( regardless if cutting herself was a calculated act for the housing & trying to make herself out the victim, she still thinks it's appropriate to cut herself which isn't the actions of a well adjusted adult)
