Lay Summary :
People experiencing first episode psychosis (FEP) do better and have an increased chance of recovery when they get treatment earlier. Several research studies have shown that people from minority ethnic groups have higher rates of psychosis, and they are more likely to be admitted to hospital involuntarily. The UK government recently introduced a policy for improving access early intervention (EI) for psychosis. This research aims to examine the relationship between sociodemographic factors, measurements of pathways into care, and the time taken to access an EI service for FEP, particularly in the context of the new policy.<br/>
