Referrals and access
If you would like to complete a transfer of care from a Community Mental Health Team outside of South West London and St. George’s Trust, please contact the Integrated Recovery Hub.
All other external and self-referrals should be sent according to the referrals and access information via Merton Primary Care Liaison Service.
All internal referrals should be sent directly to the treatment team (not the SPA team) using internal referral processes on the clinical system. Any internal referrals that are made using other methods will not be accepted.
