| Sumario: | This six-month retrospective by study Russell Arthur, Anne-Marie Daly and Lynne Taylor examines the pattern of referrals accepted by a CAMHS team following the implementation of a smaller multi-disciplinary allocations group, FACE (Focused Allocation with Clarity and Efficiency). Preliminary data suggest that referral were not accepted for a number of reasons: a lack of clarity by referrers' regarding the service and its' function; referrals were not of the correct age; lack of information regarding the referral; referral considered more suitable for other services/agencies (e.g. learning disabilities) and misperception of the problem by the referrer. Implications for CAMHS service delivery and planning are discussed. |
