The process is led by children’s nurses based within a children & young people continuing care team.

A continuing care package will be required when a child or young person has needs arising from -

  • disability
  • accident
  • illness

that cannot be met by existing universal or specialist services alone.

Referrals can be made by -

  • parents
  • carers
  • health professionals
  • social care and voluntary section

More information on making referrals can be found on the CHCP website.
