The Child and Adolescent Health Service will be employing an additional 94.9 FTE across a range of disciplines by the 2025-2026 financial year, with over 40 FTE already commenced. This FTE will be employed across the metropolitan area, with flexibility for movement between sites in response to operational need.
The WA Country Health Service will be employing an additional 19.4 FTE across a range of disciplines by 2025-26 financial year. Specific allocation of FTE to country WA regions will be determined following a review of current referral numbers and service wait times.
