As a local service, supporting our local community, we provide a sense of ‘belonging’ for the client and understand the environmental, social, and psychological pressures that they may be facing. We are familiar with and already have established positive working relationships with many of the local helping agencies that can complement the support for the service user.
The professionalism and expertise of the EDAS team ensures that good clinical practice is upheld at all times, providing the best possible outcome for the service user, helping them to work towards recovery and reintegration into the community, with improved prospects for education and employment, increased mental and physical well being and a healthier and more positive outlook on life.
