Care and treatment of eating disorders - national specification: consultation

How you can help us / our next steps

In this consultation, we have asked a number of questions about the Specification. On pages 6 to 48, you can find a copy of the draft Specification in its entirety.

Part One of the consultation asks questions about the Specification as an entire document.

Part Two and Three ask questions on specific outcomes, and for your thoughts on how we might measure these.

If your time is limited, you may focus on Part One of the consultation which contains seven questions. Answering these questions will allow you to feedback on the Specification overall, and includes a space for you to include any additional comments.

Part Two of the consultation consists of more detailed questions on each Outcome.

Part Three asks more detailed and technical questions to gather opinions about how we can support services in order to implement the Specification and how we plan to measure their implementation. This part of the consultation may be most relevant to people who have experience working in, or running services, but we welcome everyone's views.

The views you express will be carefully considered, whether you answer all of the questions or only some of them. In order to show what people have said, a summary will be published of all the responses. We aim to publish the final version of the Specification in early 2024.
