The Eating Disorders Service provides assessment and treatment for people with eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge eating disorder and some atypical eating. The service offers a person-centred approach to care, working with individuals to plan a treatment package that is best suited to their needs. Based on a philosophy of self-directed recovery, they encourage those in treatment to build a meaningful and fulfilling life beyond the confines of their eating disorder.
The Eating Disorders Service consists of a multi-disciplinary team and aims to work closely and flexibly with individuals, their families and others that are important to them. The service works with primary care (GPs) and secondary mental health services, in order to provide a comprehensive package of care. The Eating Disorders Service also supports the process of admission and discharge for those needing an episode of inpatient care.
You require a GP referral to this service but you can find a useful document with links to various support resources here.
