How to access the service

Professional referrals

If you would like to access our service, please ask your child’s Paediatrician, or another healthcare professional within the Trust, to make a referral.

The following must apply:

• Your child must have a physical health condition and present with emotional, behavioural or psychological difficulties related to this.
• Your child or young person is under the care of a Torbay and South Devon Paediatrician.
• Your child or young person is informed about our service and has consented to the referral.

All referrals are discussed on an individual basis in our weekly referral meetings. We will then contact you to let you know the outcome of your referral and provide any helpful resources or sign posting.
