CAMHS assessments

CAMHS assessments refer to evaluations conducted by Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services to understand a young person's emotional, behavioral, or mental health issues. These assessments typically involve interviews with the child or teenager, their family, and sometimes teachers. The goal is to gather insights about the individual's feelings, behavior, and experiences to identify any difficulties and formulate appropriate interventions or support plans. The process aims to ensure that the young person receives the right help tailored to their specific needs, promoting their overall well-being and development.
