Eating Disorder Service

The Barwon Health Eating Disorder Service, in association with key service partners, is responsible for specialist assessment, consultation and treatment services to consumers with an eating disorder and their carers, in the Barwon region.

Eating disorders assessment is available to consumers of all ages.

The service includes a specialist early intervention program for young people aged up to 25 years that aims to reduce the duration and/or impact of psychological and physical disturbance by enhancing early recognition and timely appropriate treatments.

In conjunction with Deakin University, the Eating Disorder service offers a group program for carers of people with an eating disorder (Collaborative Care Skills Workshop), which runs three times / year for six weeks.
