Clinical mental health service catchments - summary of consultation paper

Reconfiguring the catchment areas under which clinical mental health services are organised is a key step in delivering the kind of seamless, easy-to-navigate system that consumers and carers expect. It is also important for achieving optimal efficiency and effectiveness across the state. Whilst the realignment of clinical catchments alone will not guarantee all of these outcomes, it is an important prerequisite for achieving a more responsive and sustainable service system.
