While North Coast Head to Health does not require a referral for a person to access service, we do support referrals by GPs, primary health professionals, local area health districts providers, non-government organisations and Department of Education services.
When a referral is received, our intake staff will check eligibility.
Intake staff will process the referral and, if required, request a clinician to review it and undertake an assessment prior to sending to a health professional.
A North Coast Head to Health clinician may then contact the individual to determine their needs, as well as relevant and available support services.
