How to access this service
People are mostly referred by their GP, although referrals can be made by outside agencies such as social services, housing or other support services.
Service users cannot refer themselves directly, however if a service user or their carer/relative believes they require the service, they can arrange to discuss it with their GP who will then forward a referral to the service. The Assessment Service is not a crisis service.
