Moving to different services

Moving to different services

You may need to change the services that help you with your eating disorder. You might move to a new area, for example if you're a young person going to college or university or starting a new job. And young people move from children's to adults' services as they approach 18 (this move is called transition).

If you need to move to a different service the professionals who work with you should make sure you still receive care, from professionals who understand what you need.

NICE has written advice about moving from children's to adults' services that explains more about this particular transition.
