Special referral instructions
Call the intake worker to discuss a potential referral prior to faxing the referral form. This is to ensure that there is not a delay in treatment if the client is not suitable for the service. If the intake worker accepts the verbal referral, complete the ICYAMHWS referral form and fax to the service.
