We offer a day care programme to adults who have eating disorders such as Anorexia Nervosa and severe forms of Bulimia Nervosa.
The programme gives intensive, five day-a-week treatment using a multi-disciplinary approach where nurses, psychiatrists and psychologists as well as therapists such as dieticians, occupational therapists and psychotherapists are involved in giving treatment. The length of a person's stay in the programme is agreed collaboratively with staff.
Features of the programme include:
- Intensive specialist assessment
- Supervised meals and snacks
- Supervised periods after meals
- Specialist nutritional assessment and review
- Medical monitoring and review
- Family or partner involvement, as appropriate
- Individual therapy sessions
- Therapeutic groups such as relaxation, stress management, body image groups, psycho education and creative expression.
