NCEL CAMHS Home Treatment Team (HTT)
NCEL CAMHS Home Treatment Team (HTT) provides a community-based intensive provision as an alternative to in-patient care for children and young people. HTT service operates within the NHS Long Term Plan and NCEL objectives, focusing on improving access, reducing hospital admissions, and ensuring timely, community-based support for mental health needs. This specification is aligned with the recommendations outlined in the NHS England Guidance (2024) "Urgent and Emergency Mental Health Care for Children and Young People: National Implementation Guidance."
HTT offers intensive, short-term interventions designed to stabilise the individual and their family environment, promoting recovery and preventing the need for inpatient care. The service ensures that care is delivered close to home, reducing unnecessary hospital admissions, and promoting recovery through tailored evidence-based interventions. The service operates under the governance of the NCEL Provider Collaborative.
Following the temporary closure of Simmons House CAMHS inpatient service, as part of interim plans, North Central London (NCL) CAMHS HTT will enhance its current service provision to support alternative treatment pathways for young people.
