Who Is This Service For?
This service may assist young people preparing to leave hospital, youth detention or another supervised care environment. Access depends on individual needs, referral arrangements, discharge plans and service availability.
Effective discharge planning may involve identifying ongoing care needs and connecting the young person with suitable services before they leave care.
Supporting a Safe Transition
A coordinated transition can help reduce gaps in care and provide greater stability after discharge. Support is tailored to the young person’s circumstances, strengths, cultural needs and agreed goals.
