Child and Adult Mental Health Unit

TeachingExpertise Article
The Child and Adult Mental Health Unit is concerned with various aspects of mental health.
It is a special unit, usually attached to a hospital, possibly within a Children’s Centre, a Family Centre or a Child Guidance Centre. Clinical psychologists are available to work with children and their families, either at the unit or by making home or school visits. Either the family’s GP or the school, or occasionally the social worker or educational welfare officer may refer a child to this service.
