We offer a one hour response time to referrals, with a decision on a placement no more than an hour after we receive adequate clinical information.
Where a bed is not immediately available in the preferred service, we can cross-refer to our national network of hospitals with the agreement of the referrer. All of our services have 24 hour medical cover and admissions can occur 24 hours a day.
Our PICU and acute wards work closely together to form comprehensive acute care pathways across the group. Working closely with commissioning teams, we are able to offer pathways out of PICU where clinically appropriate and therapeutically beneficial, across our comprehensive network of specialist services, including acute services, mental health rehabilitation and specialist personality disorder services.
