NHS fails to meet waiting time standards for children and young people's eating disorder services
Conclusion
From 2015, NHSE introduced specific waiting times standards for three service areas —talking therapy services, early intervention in psychosis services and eating disorder services for children and young people—which set ambitions for people to enter treatment quickly. While the NHS has met the standards for talking therapy services and early intervention in psychosis services, it has not yet done so for eating disorder services for children and young people.25
