Referrals to the Medway Young Persons’ Wellbeing Service
The referral process is via a Single Point of Access (SPA). This will be used for all referrals.
The SPA is a vital part of the service as a central point for screening, triage and sign-posting.
Referrals will be accepted from all professionals involved with the child or young person, family members or self-referral from the young person themselves.
