Therefore, as a first step, we have commissioned a review of the provision, investment and workforce for delivering eating disorder services for adults. This review looks across both inpatient and community services for adults.</p><p> </p><p>The voluntary sector including BEAT were involved in scoping the data collection associated with this review, and will be key partners in shaping the programme plan on adult eating disorders going forward.</p><p> </p><p>NHS England has introduced new care models for specialist mental health services, where a secondary provider is in receipt of NHS England’s budget for commissioning specialised tertiary services. There are two areas of the country with adult eating disorder services new care models (West Yorkshire and Harrogate; Thames Valley and Wessex). We expect that these areas will start to make important progress in both joining up the transition from young people to adults eating disorders services, and improving the treatment and care adults receive, as close to home as possible.</p> answering member constituency Thurrock answering member printed Jackie Doyle-Price question first answered 26/03/2018 14:57:41 answering member 4065 label Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price
