Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Service (EWMHS) October Stakeholder Engagement Event Presentation

EWMHS formerly known as “CAMHS” Some background Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) were provided by a number of different health and social care organisations across the county of Essex The services young people received were different depending on where they lived The Commissioners (who pay for services) in all the areas got together and decided it would be best for young people if one organisation provided the same service for all young people in the county of Essex They chose NELFT to provide these services This means that from 1 November 2015, “CAMHS” will be called the Emotional Wellbeing and Mental Health Service (EWMHS) For the areas of Essex, Thurrock and Southend for young people aged 0 to 18 - and up to age 25 for young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN)
