Psychiatry service (child & adolescent)
The Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Service offers assessment and treatment for children and young people suffering mental health difficulties, and their families.
Our consultants are experienced in psychiatry, family psychotherapy and child psychotherapy and work closely with a paediatric social worker to provide services for Chelsea and Westminster Hospital’s emergency department and children’s wards, local schools and community social services.
The team assesses each child and a multidisciplinary treatment plan is offered for those requiring care on one of our children’s wards. We maintain close links with Children’s Social Services to ensure children are supported at home and in the community.
