Experts by experience, clinicians and researchers mark a decade of FREED, First Episode Rapid Early Intervention for Eating Disorders.
2014-24, FREED is an early intervention service model and care pathway delivering rapid well-coordinated care and interventions to young people with eating disorders. FREED is tailored to their developmental and illness stage. Across several studies FREED was shown to substantially reduce the amount of time young people spend having an untreated eating disorder, and FREED patients have markedly better treatment outcomes than similar young people treated as usual. Using the FREED service was shown to be a positive and empowering experience for patients, carers and staff.
