In Lower Austria, an important new contact point for children and adolescents is opened in crisis situations, which the often defendant care gaps in child and adolescent psychiatry should appeal. The new ambulatorium "Die Boje" will soon start operating at the main square in Tulln. This facility offers quick and uncomplicated support for younger people who are in difficult situations.

After a two -year phase of planning and renovation, "Die Boje" fulfills the important task of offering acute aid. This happens in cases where children and adolescents have lost a close person, for example, suffer from a serious physical or mental illness or have to process traumatic experiences such as violence or separations.

diverse offers of help

A central feature of this new outpatient clinic is the comprehensive range of assistance. This includes crisis intervention, special treatments in child and adolescent psychiatric care, short-term therapies and, if necessary, long-term psychotherapy. In addition to therapeutic group offers, parent work in the measures is also taken into account in order to ensure holistic support.

It is particularly important that the entire offers for the families concerned are as low -threshold and unbureaucratically accessible as possible. The services are taken over by the health insurers, which means that the parents do not have to worry about costs. This makes it possible to provide help quickly and without long processes, which is essential when it comes to psychological crises in children and adolescents.

The "The Boje" ambulatory has existed in Vienna for 20 years and is now being expanded to create an adequate contact point in Tulln. With this step, the efforts are continued to better support children and adolescents who are almost always under enormous pressure in crisis situations. The opening of the outpatient care is not only regarded as a profit for those affected, but also represents an important contribution to improving mental health care in the region.
