✦ Synopsis

This paper presents the results of an audit of people with eating disorders treated by adult mental health services. l n f m t i o n was obtained about the sevm'ty and nature of the eating disorder, treatment receiwed and outcome of treatment for 128 clients who were assessed or treated for an eating disorder by eight adult mental health team or mental health dietitians between Apnl and September 1994 (inclusive). These teams serve a population of 54 1 986. Referral rates corresponded with those reported by pretious studies.
