We work closely with CCGs to provide services which complement existing assessment or treatment plans. Our open referral policy means that we can see children and young people immediately with all levels of need.

How can CCGs commission our services?

Commissioning our services can be done on a standalone basis and through an ongoing service level agreement. All of our health services can be commissioned under one agreement, making co-ordination and communication streamlined.

When would CCGs require input from EHP?

There are various occasions when a CCG would require input from EHP, the main occasion being when multiple professionals are required for an individual case. EHP would be required due to the ease in which co-ordinating and communicating between professionals is within our team.

CCGs and health professionals can commission and refer to EHP to use our specialist multidisciplinary education and health team. We work with all areas and levels of SEND. To find out more please email office@ehp.org.uk or call 0330 088 8408.
