Statement of Purpose
Introduction
Our medical service consists of dedicated and professional practitioners and staff. We strive to be acknowledged by our clients, suppliers and regulators as the leader in our sector. This is achieved by ensuring that we recruit and train highly professional staff whose ambitions are to exceed client expectations. We have combined the experience of the team to give us the ability to provide the very finest and progressive clinical cover.
EPIC SOLUTIONS is a Consultant-led healthcare service for children, young people and young adults up to the age of 25. We offer assessment by a Consultant Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist, a Consultant general Adult Psychiatrist, a Consultant Paediatrician and/or by a Consultant Psychologist.
All referrals received into the services are individually assessed, and further information is requested as required. Even at this stage, a tailored care plan begins, as a decision is made about which Professional(s) are most appropriate to conduct the initial assessment. This will always include one of our Consultants. Following this, where indicated we can facilitate assessment/ treatment from other members of our Allied Healthcare Professional team who work in ongoing partnership with our Consultants. If a child young person or young adult has a complex set of needs spanning both physical and mental health, we offer an innovative and unique joint assessment combining the expertise of both an age-appropriate Consultant Psychiatrist and a Consultant Paediatrician, to create an individualised treatment package.
At every stage of a clients care we ensure ongoing multi-disciplinary support and supervision. We have regular team meetings, discussing cases, and ensuring that every client receives the optimum care.
