The guidelines will assist treating teams to:
• Manage the medical and psychological risks and needs of people with eating disorders,
• Promote coordinated care with a smooth transition across medical, mental health and specialist services,
• Encourage state-wide consistency in treatment and management,
• Include families and carers in the service response to people affected by eating disorders.
