Hospital ERs not the answer to state's dire mental crisis.

Emergency departments are being overtake by mental health patients, because the state government is not spending enough money for specialist application. A new report called KPMG has found the state government spends the lowest percentage on community managed mental healthcare in the country. This means, people who has  mental health problems are compulsory to go to hospital emergency departments when they are in crisis.

Mental Health coordinating council CEO Carmel Tebbutt,said:''it is not good for people with mental health conditions to have to wait they get to crisis before they can get access to services." Also, she said: '' if it was cancer you wouldn't have people being told:you'll have to wait, we can't provide the services you need."
Her solution is an additional $180 million per year to expand supported living services for 5000 people who are not obtain mental health services. So, it would save $1.20 for each $1 invested.
In addition, Hedspace is a national youth mental health service that permit people from 12 to 15 years old to offer a range of mental health services. The plan is supported by University of Melbourne Professor Patrick McGorry, who is the executive director of youth mental health organisation Orygen and the 2010 Australian of the year. Furthermore, a Western Sydney University report found
this year that there is insufficient follow-up care for suicidal people who arrive at the area's hospital emergency department. The most affected areas were around Parramatta, Mount Druitt, Calingford, Rouse Hill and Epping.
 A NSW Health spokeswoman said:'' expenditure on community-based mental health services increased 15.4 per cent between 2011 and 2016." Moreover, she said that " NSW is one of the only jurisdictions to retain its housing support programs and did not include these as part of its contribution to the NDIS."
At the end she said:'' NSW Government continues to work in partnership with community managed organisations and Primary Health Networks to better integrate service provision."
