Description
This Centre provides InPatient and DayPatient care to young people from South Yorkshire and North Derbyshire
We work with complex and severe problems in young people from 12 16 years of age who have been assessed and referred to us by the community CAMHS teams
We offer care 24 hours per day and 365 days per year though many teenagers attend 5 days per week as a day attender or 5 days per week as a resident returning home at the weekends
Once assessed a teenager may have to wait some weeks for a bed to become available but we also respond promptly where there is a psychiatric emergency
We offer a full range of physical psychological social and educational interventions delivered by our multidisciplinary team
Patients and families requiring more information should initially contact their out patient CAMHS team
