Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic, Matinkylä
Keywords:The Matinkylä Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic is an examination and evaluation unit.
The Matinkylä Adolescent Psychiatry Outpatient Clinic evaluates, examines and treats adolescents aged 13 to 17. There are two working groups in the same building, but with different entrances: Puolikkotie 8, 3rd floor and Puolikkotie 10, 3rd floor.
For the examination and evaluation period, you will require a physician's referral. Your examination period will begin within three weeks from your referral arriving at our unit. We will provide a treatment recommendation for you within six weeks.
During your examination period, we will determine your needs related to specialist medical care in adolescent psychiatric care or any other treatment. We will review your needs in cooperation with you and your parents/guardians and other cooperation partners. Any information you may have on your previous examinations (such as psychologist’s tests, growth and development reports, or reports by child welfare services) will help us in our assessment. You should take any results from examinations conducted outside HUS with you on your first appointment with us.
Our activities are about confidential cooperation with you and your family/guardians.
During your examination period, we can utilize our inpatient ward care or the Matinkylä Adolescent Psychiatry Day Unit, if necessary.
