Child and Youth Mental Health Service (CYMHS) community teams provide Gold Coast–wide care and operate across multiple locations, including Proxima, the Robina Health Precinct and the Head to Health Kids site in Nerang, depending on what best meets the needs of the child or young person.
We provide targeted treatment for patients with complex mental health needs, including those experiencing self-harm and psychosocial crisis with emotional dysregulation. Our approach includes Gold Card clinics and other evidence-based interventions, available in both community and inpatient settings.
This service is for young people aged 12 to 25 years old who are frequently presenting to emergency departments and inpatient services in the context of psychosocial crisis with emotional dysregulation.
Referrals can be made through CYMHS community or inpatient services, or via the Acute Care Team for adults. Patients must be actively engaged with a CYMHS treating team.
