Local CAMHS Teams
There are close working relationships between the Paediatric Liaison team and the Community
CAMHS teams locally, with these services being run by Hampshire & Isle of Wight Healthcare NHS
Foundation Trust. There are particularly close links with Horizon, the Southampton Community
CAMHS service situated just a mile away from UHS, as well as the Inreach Liaison team and the
BRS, which is multiagency and provides input for children in crisis and for looked after children.
The two Child & Adolescent Psychiatrists in UHS are permanently invited to participate in the
monthly Southampton and Portsmouth Consultants' meeting which comprises a business meeting
and CPD component. There is an expectation that the postholder will join one of the peer review
CPD groups available locally, for instance the group attended by Dr Sally Wicks from UHS
alongside CAMHS consultants from Horizon.
