About The Role
The Ed-LinQ program operates at the state and HHS levels to enhance the early detection and collaborative care of school-aged children and young people experiencing mental health problems. It does so by addressing three key focus areas: provision of school-based consultation-liaison, enhancing capacity and fostering strategic partnerships. The program will be articulated in the Ed-LinQ model of service and underpinned by a state-wide evaluation and reporting framework.
The Child and Youth Mental Health Service (CYMHS) provides specialised mental health care to children and young people (up to and including 17 years of age) with severe and complex mental health issues and their families/carers. It follows a therapy-based model with specific consideration of family and developmental stage. CYMHS operates as a multidisciplinary team. CYMHS works with a range of external and internal stakeholders in order to provide a comprehensive and flexible service and to incorporate promotion, prevention and early intervention principles into a holistic model of service.
