How to refer someone to this service

GPs can refer using our referral form available within all practices across the county.

Notts Healthcare staff, please refer to the staff intranet where you can find the full referral criteria and referral form.

 

 

What to expect following a referral

All referrals will be reviewed by our clinical team. If a referral is declined, a letter explaining why will be sent to the referrer and client. If the referral is accepted, the client will be added to the waiting list for the type of assessment or treatment that they have requested. A letter confirming their acceptance onto the list will be sent to the referrer and the client. The client copy will also include a leaflet called 'Waiting Well' which outlines how to access support if needed while they wait.
