EATING DISORDERS SERVICES IN SCOTLAND 2012
Unless otherwise stated, these services are for adult patients, usually 16/18 – 65
Patients under the age of 18 are served by a good network of General CAMHS services in
every Health Board, who will have experience in management of Eating Disorders and access
to one of the 3 CAMHS Inpatient Units where necessary. A few CAMHS services have
separate specialist ED teams, but the only specialist CAMHS Eating Disorders Inpatient
Facility in Scotland is in the Independent Sector at Huntercombe Hospital in West Lothian

NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service aims to ensure the safe and appropriate outpatient
management of individuals with severe and/or enduring eating disorders. The service will also coordinate the admission and discharge arrangements of those requiring inpatient care for their eating
disorder.
As a general rule, referrals should be directly from either APTS or CMHS staff (with the GP’s
knowledge). An exception to this would be where, for example, inpatient care may be likely due to
the severity/complexity of the individual’s presentation at the time of GP assessment.
NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service is aimed at individuals in age range 18 (16 for those not at
school) to 64 years who have a diagnosable, severe and/or enduring eating disorder. Primarily, this
will include the diagnosis of anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and atypical presentations (e.g., binge
eating disorder), where these are identified as the most significant presenting problem.
NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service is aimed at individuals with (atypical) anorexia nervosa in the
moderate to severe range (i.e., BMI <17.5 to <15), and/or with significant co-morbidity (e.g.,
diabetes, pregnancy, depression).
NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service is aimed at individuals with (atypical) bulimia nervosa in the
moderate to severe range (i.e., with frequent binge-purging), and/or with significant co-morbidity
(e.g., diabetes, pregnancy, depression).
NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service is not aimed at individuals whose disordered eating is acutely
life threatening and who, consequently, require admission to a medical unit (e.g., anorexic individuals
with BMI </= 13 and evidence of system failure, bulimic individuals with daily purging and
significant electrolyte imbalance). The service will, however, co-ordinate the admission arrangements,
care plans (when on a medical ward) and discharge arrangements for such individuals.
NHS Tayside Eating Disorders Service is not aimed at individuals who are actively psychotic, with
ongoing positive symptoms, or, indeed, individuals whose disordered eating is driven by a psychosis.
Where alcohol/substance misuse is a primary presenting problem, referral should, in the first instance,
be made to NHS Tayside alcohol/substance misuse services, although joint working with other
agencies will be actively encouraged.
Where a learning disability is a presenting problem, referral should be made to NHS Tayside Learning
Disabilities Service.

other professionals within the Mental Health Services, Dietetics and our General Medical colleagues.
Problems would be moderate to severe in nature and the multi-disciplinary team - which consists of a
Consultant Psychiatrist, Senior Nurse Therapist, Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) and Senior
Mental Health Dieticians - offer assessment and treatment mainly on an out patient basis. Treatment
can be individually or in a group. Therapists work closely with the Dieticians, often developing joint
packages of care. We are also able to access Day Hospital assessment, Occupational Therapy
assessment and provision of Art Therapy. The main aim is to treat and support people at home.
People with a less severe Eating Disorder are usually managed within the General Psychiatric services
and/or Day Hospital provision.
