The other thing we are very strong on is not waiting until it
is too late. We are very focused on helping out people before the need is so
great that a person needs a rehabilitation bed. We will continue to do that.
That is why we have put additional full-time staff in the alcohol and drug
services and we have a step up, step down facility coming and we have services
through the Broome Regional Aboriginal Medical Service and through the
Kimberley Aboriginal Medical Services Council right across the Kimberley. We
will make sure that we service the Kimberley.
