Community Mental Health Service Lithgow
Service Description
An adult community mental health service for people 18-65 years of age. There is a multi disciplinary team of registered mental health nurses and visiting psychiatrists fortnightly. Referrals to other services are provided when necessary. Works closely with the Rural Adversity Mental Health Program, which has enabled the team to introduce a number of innovative local mental health programs. One example, âDoctors in the Paddockâ, has successfully boosted access to health services in the Lithgow local area by delivering farmer-focused community events via âhealth by stealthâ partnerships.
