Care, Education and Treatment Reviews (CETRs)

Care (Education) and Treatment Reviews (CETRs) are part of NHS England’s commitment to transforming services for people of all ages with a learning disability and autistic people. CETRs are for people who have been admitted to a mental health hospital or for people who are at risk of admission. They are undertaken by commissioners to ensure that people are only admitted to hospital when absolutely necessary and for the minimum amount of time possible. Care and Treatment Reviews (CTRs) are for adults and CETRs are for children and young people.
