About this app

MediCAMHS is a clinical quick-reference app for clinicians and other appropriately qualified healthcare professionals working in Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) and related paediatric and adolescent care settings.

It brings together fast-access reference tools in one place:

Growth and %mBMI calculator: WHO 2007 growth reference centiles for height, weight and BMI, with %mBMI calculation and an optional MEED-informed eating-disorder physical-health prompt set.

Guidelines browser: original, MediCAMHS authored summaries of NICE and specialist guidance across common CAMHS conditions, with links to primary sources.

ADHD hub: curated links to licensed assessment tools plus a non-licensed tool that checks DSM symptoms for ADHD that may warrant further look.

Medication monitoring: baseline and follow-up antipsychotic monitoring checklists, a follow-up schedule, and dedicated clozapine initiation and monitoring prompts.

Mental Health Act quick reference: core resources, CAMHS-relevant summaries and links to official statutory forms.

MediCAMHS is an educational and professional reference resource only. It does not provide diagnosis, treatment recommendations, prescribing decisions, risk assessment, legal advice or clinical decision support, and it does not replace clinical judgement. All content must be checked against current NICE guidance, the BNFC, local policy, Mental Health Act office procedures, trust governance and the treating clinician's own professional judgement. Clinical responsibility remains entirely with the treating clinician or responsible professional at all times.

This application does not keep any patient identifiable information on it and is used as a clinical reference alone.
