Changes to mental health pages on HealthyGC making referrals easier

If you are looking for referral options for patients requiring mental health support, the HealthyGC Mental Health webpage for GPs and health professionals has been restructured to make it easier to find services and referral options for patients.

The changes include new program pages about Gold Coast mental health services, detailed program information, eligibility and referral options. For any questions email mentalhealthAOD@gcphn.com.au.

For individuals, families or carers, helpful information is available on the consumer focused mental health pages.

And if you have any feedback about these pages, or any part of the HealthyGC website, can you please complete a brief survey, to assist us during a restructure so this website can best meet your needs.
