Lorna Wing Referral

cheesemouse

I self referred to Lorna Wing in Bromley, after being put on a waiting list by my local MH team for assessment (Wait time is years apparently). I sent in a huge wad of very personal paperwork to LW, when they asked for it and been told they have recieved it but I have heard nothing back. It's been over 6 weeks now.I've chased them several times, they take ages to respond and are very abrupt when they do, only telling me I'll "hear back at the end of the week" or "shortly".

I keep hearing that they will charge £3000 for an assessment, yet the paperwork I sent in would be pretty much all the paperwork needed in any assessment. So is the £3000 just for the 3 hour in person assessment? (£1000 an hour???!!!)

What has anyone else who has self refferred as an adult to LW experienced?

  • Really shocked and very stressed out right now.

    I received a reply from LWC about my self referral this morning. They are wanting me to forward all my paperwork that I said I would... hang on... I sent it all in over 8 weeks ago!! I have the confirmation from them that they had received it.

    This is just so stressful!!

    Filing and keeping paperwork in the correct file isn't that difficult! I am so fed up with having to repeat myself over and over because people are incompetent where their jobs are concerned!

    I've already had a huge panic attack today, I really don't need this! When my panic levels have come back down in a few days I'll gather all the correspondence up and file a complaint.
