STRUCTURE: East Riding of Yorkshire and Hull Clinical Commissioning Groups, Hull City Council and East Riding of Yorkshire Council have launched a review and redesign of Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services in the area.

According to a statement by  East Riding of Yorkshire CCG, the review has been prompted by feedback from users of the service and providers that “ease of access and waiting times within the service could be improved, as well as a change to the model for commissioning highly specialist services Children and Adolescent Mental Health Services.”

It says that the one of key objectives of the review will be to commission a specialist Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service “that is able to respond quickly and appropriately to need as close to home as possible.”
