Mental Health

In 2002, 2003 and 2004, through a grant application process, small amounts of funding resourced numerous projects of Health Units and other organisations within the Hills Mallee Southern Region. This provided an opportunity for the recipients to conduct activities supporting the mental and emotional wellbeing of their communities and to recognise and/or enhance local community development, community participation and project management skills.

The Mental Health Inpatient Integration Project at Murray Bridge Hospital is a report looking at the perceived lack of capacity to provide comprehensive assessment and quality management care for mental health consumers.
