How to refer

To be eligible for referral, the young person must be:

  • 15 to 25 and have been diagnosed with cancer
  • under 35
  • live in Queensland.

Young people having cancer treatment at one of these hospitals, will usually be automatically connected to us:

  • Queensland Children's Hospital
  • Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital
  • Princess Alexandra Hospital
  • Gold Coast University Hospital
  • Townsville University Hospital.

For young people having treatment at another public hospital or at a private cancer service in Queensland, they can self-refer, be referred by their GP or treating team.

Complete the referral form to refer a young person to QYCS (DOCX 80 kB).

If the young person has not previously been connected to QYCS, complete the referral form and indicate survivorship and transition as the reason for referral.

For referral advice or eligibility, contact QYCS.
