Question
Further to WQ88598, how do schools access child and adolescent mental health service school in-reach services?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
The school in-reach service sits within the health boards’ main child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) team. There is a coordinator for each CAMHS in-reach service, and all schools have been contacted and provided with their local team contact details. School staff can contact their local team using various methods most suitable to them (email/ telephone/ teams meeting) to access professional advice, guidance and liaison relating to children within their school community or issues regarding mental health and wellbeing.
