About the Team
The Integrated Child and Youth Mental Health Service (CYMHS) provides complex secondary and tertiary level health care. CYMHS offers specialised mental health services for families with infants, children and young people (birth to 18 years) who experience severe and complex mental health problems, and where their needs cannot be met by other services. CYMHS provides a comprehensive, recovery-orientated mental healthcare service that aims to improve the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people and their carer networks. Recovery principles are embedded into service delivery, culture and practice, providing consumers and their families, in collaboration with other services, access and referral to a range of programs that will support and sustain recovery. CYMHS combines hospital and community-based facilities to provide free consultation, assessment and treatment of children and young people experiencing serious mental health disorders and problems with their carer network.
The Community Program consists of 6 multidisciplinary teams that support children, young people and their families aged from 5-18 years of age presenting with complex mental health needs. Interventions range from acute crisis response to medium term interventions. Liaison with other Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Community Controlled Health Organisations and other external agencies including schools is core to the Community CYMHS model of care.
The Eating Disorders Program (EDP) Community team is a specialist mental health clinical service and part of the child and youth mental health services (CYMHS) within Children's Health Queensland Hospital and Health Service (CHQ HHS).
