Eating Disorders Day Program

The Eating Disorders Day Program operates from 9.00am — 3.30pm Monday to Friday during school terms and is co-ordinated by a Clinical Nurse Specialist in conjunction with the multidisciplinary Adolescent Team.

Patients attend the Day Program from one to five days per week for a contracted length of time. They participate in school activities on the Adolescent Ward in the morning, supervised lunch and structured group activities in the afternoon.

This program assists with the management and treatment of adolescents with anorexia nervosa who are in a pre-admission phase, or transitioning home post discharge from hospital.
